Major road and railway bridges

The longest viaduct in Switzerland is the Yverdon Viaduct  [ de ], built in 1984 on the A5 motorway with a total length of 3,155 metres (10,351 ft). [S 30] [12] The Letzigraben Bridge  [ de ], near Zürich Hauptbahnhof, is the longest railway viaduct in the country measuring 1,156 metres (3,793 ft). [S 31] [13]

The Grimselsee Bridge is part of the "KWO plus" project which consists to raise by 23 metres (75 ft) the water level of the Grimsel Lake, to increase the power capacity of the two Spittellamm and Seeuferegg damns. The part of the road between Guttannen and Obergoms flooded by the project will be span by a 346 metres (1,135 ft) cable-stayed bridge, to restore the continuity across the lake. [14] [15]

In 2021 a competition was organized to choose the project for the Plessur river valley crossing near Chur in the Grisons canton, in order to relieve the road traffic of the city center. [16] Among a total of 41 projects submitted, the winner is called "un solo arco" (only one arch), it proposes a steel arch with a 340 metres (1,120 ft) main span, more than 100 metres (330 ft) above the river. [17] This bridge will be named the St. Luzi Bridge  [ de ].

This table presents the structures with spans greater than 100 meters (non-exhaustive list).
