Pot-Luck-Humor - Would you like to drive over this????????

 


Would you like to drive over this?!








There's something just not right about driving
above the clouds..







The
Millau Viaduct is part of the new
E11 expressway connecting Paris  and  
Barcelona and features the highest bridge piers
ever constructed. . The tallest  is 240
metres
(787 feet) high and the overall height is an
impressive
336 metres (1102 feet), making this

the highest bridge in the world.

It's taller than the  Eiffel   Tower  .



Interestingly,  the Millau Viaduct is not straight.
Why?
It's because a straight road could
induce a
floating sensation as you drive across it.. So,
a slight curve remedies that feeling. The curve is
20km in range. Moreover, the road
has a light
incline of 3% to
improve the visibility and reassure
the driver.  An amazing
engineering feat!  

Slide  the picture to the right/left
to see the whole bridge..
What a view - 787 feet high!
