The tallest of several high viaducts on Italy’s breathtaking A20 motorway that opened in 2004 on the island of Sicily between Palermo and Messina, the twin structure Malpertugio Viaduct has several 361 foot (110 mtr) spans perched on top of a parade of beautifully tapered piers. Like most of the bridges on this awesome autopista, Malpertugio is wedged between two large tunnels with outstanding views of the Mediterranean sea.
