Millau Viaduct

A cable-stayed bridge crossing the Tarn Valley, and a landmark collaboration between Foster and structural engineers.

Very tall piers and a curving deck cross the valley as a visually light line.

It is infrastructure at the boundary of architecture and civil engineering.

The moving landscape experienced while driving is part of the design.

Architect Norman Foster
