The gradient rises continuously on the bridge in a southerly direction.

history

In the planning and construction phase, the structure was in planning section 13 of the new line.

The groundwater was temporarily lowered for the foundation of the pillars. The bed of the Schwarzenbach was relocated in places as the bridge was being built. Fish ponds, which shaped the valley before the construction phase, were relocated to another location before the construction work began. After the construction work was finished, they were replaced by wetlands .
