Above the valley floor, the Viaduc du Paillon stands as a testament to engineering and perseverance. The Viaduc du Paillon isn’t just one bridge, but two parallel structures. The first viaduct, completed in 1978, stretches an impressive 350.6 meters. Its double T-beam design and towering 22-meter pillars speak to its strength. The second Viaduc du Paillon, finished in 1986, uses a different approach. It’s a 364-meter-long prestressed concrete box girder bridge, a marvel of modern construction.
