Bettinia Bridge
Viadotto Bettinia
Pontremoli, Tuscany, Italy
(230) feet high / (70) meters high

Bettinia Bridge is the first of 3 high beam spans near the city of Pontremoli along the A15 / E31 Autostrada in the Tuscany region of Italy.
Completed in 1975, the Bettinia Bridge was widened in later years with new piers.
Just to the north is the even higher Rio Verde with piers as tall as 138 meters.
Stretching 101 kilometers from the coastal city of La Spezia to the Po Valley and the A1 motorway in Parma, the 4-lane divided A15 / E31 has many of the tight turns and narrow shoulders that sparked a rebuilding of some of the route with new tunnels, wider turns and the replacement of several older viaducts.
