The Rio Deza Railway Viaduct in the Galicia region of Spain was once the second tallest high speed rail bridge in the world on a rail line that had the 3 tallest high speed railway bridges ever built when it opened in 2012. Similar to Germany’s Rombachtal viaduct with a wishbone shaped center span, the massive Deza concrete viaduct is 348 feet (106 mtrs) high with a main span of 492 feet (150 mtrs). A wishbone strut support was also used on the Viaducto de O Eixo about 12 miles (19 kms) to the south on the same rail line. The design has also become a signature of several Spanish motorway bridges including the Viaducto Rio Narón on the A6, the Rio Seco on the A7 and the Barranca Ramblazo on the A23 west of Valencia.Website:http://www.adifaltavelocidad.es/es_ES/doc/fichas/Viaducto_Deza.pdf
