The two Fliedetalbrücken south of Fulda. The northern Fliedetal Bridge , which can be seen in the foreground, is followed by a short elevation to the southern Fliedetal Bridge .

The southern Fliedetalbrücke is a 628 m long railway bridge on the high-speed line Hanover – Würzburg south of Fulda . The bridge structure spans the Hessian Kinzig Valley Railway and the A 66 .

course

The building is located northwest of the Hattenhof district of the Neuhof community . The route runs straight on the bridge.

To the north follows the northern Fliedetalbrücke , which crosses the K 100, the federal road 40 and the Fulda tributary Fliede . Between the two bridges there is a small elevation in the middle of the Fliedetal.

An earth dump was created between the northern and southern Fliedetal Bridge. Also to the south is a 348 m long and up to 17 m high dam. For this purpose, agricultural and hiking trails were laid or converted over a length of 5.5 km during the construction phase.

The route climbs continuously south of the bridge to the ridge of the land ridge to reach its highest point there.

history

Considerations for a 25 n high dam over the Fliedetal were not pursued further. A proposed 1,600 m long bridge structure to cross the Fliedetal was discarded due to aesthetic considerations.

The bridge was built with a feed armor.

The structure was located on the southern edge of planning section 18 in the middle section of the new line. At the southern abutment of the bridge, during the planning and construction phase, the boundary between the planning section of the project group "H / W South", which was based at the Federal Railway Directorate in Nuremberg, was located.
