Crossing from one flat plateau to another near Benameji, Spain, the lofty Viaducto Rio Genil will carry the A-45 Autovía Córdoba-Antequera on a new, direct alignment across the river. The older 2-lane crossing traversed a wide arc west of the new viaduct but is now used for southbound lanes only while the newer bridge is only for northbound lanes. Completed in 2010, the lanky piers support 5 long spans of 312 feet (95 mtrs).
