The structure consists of three spans and features a central arch over the main span. It has a continuous deck measuring 116.4 meters in length, free of internal expansion joints, and a width of 17.5 meters. The span crossing the river\u2019s main flow channel adopts a bowstring arch configuration with a lower deck braced by the arch. In this case, the solution incorporates a central arch rising 7.8 meters above ground level. The article provides a detailed account of both the structural characteristics and the construction process of this singular bridge.<\/p>\n<p>The project also included the construction of a road slightly over one kilometer in length, incorporating four roundabouts. Two of these, each with a diameter of 50 meters, connect to the C-37 at kilometer 64.3, along the stretch between Vilanova del Cam\u00ed and Igualada.<\/p>\n<p>The new road crosses the Riera de la Garrigosa via a 10.70-meter-wide deck and connects to the Fasina road through another roundabout of similar dimensions. The fourth roundabout links the intersection of Carrer del Rec and Carrer de la Miseric\u00f2rdia within Igualada.<\/p>\n<p>Access to the magazine (article begins on page 47):<\/p>\n<p><a
