(Reporter 49, Dec 2003) The highway bridge currently being constructed over the Tarn River in Southern France will be 19 meters higher than the Eiffel Tower. At the time of publication of this Reporter issue, the highest of a total of seven bridge piers will have reached a height of 244m – merely 70% of its full height of 343m together with its steel pylon. The deck of this world’s tallest bridge, which is under construction one hundred kilometers north of Montpellier, will span the Tarn River valley at a height of 270m.
