Pietre Bianchi Bridge is one of Italy's largest concrete arches with a span of approximately 140 meters. The crossing connects the 2-lane route SS585 with the town of Lagonegro.
Lagonegro has a history of high bridges that started in 1929 with the completion of the 55 meter high Lagonegro Railway Bridge located just south of town on the narrow gauge Ferrovia Lagonegro-Castrovillari-Spezzano Albanese line. The six arch viaduct became the most iconic engineering achievement on the line before it was damaged in 1952 from a landslide.
In 1973 the steel box beam Serra Bridge opened on the new A3 Autostrada north of town with a height of 122 meters.
