Chronology
1969 | Due to severe deterioration of the piers on the arch supporting the original deck, the vertical supports and the deck are removed and replaced by a prestressed concrete deck. Since then the bridge has an overall appearance more like the later three-hinged arch bridges of Robert Maillart. |
