A
record on the Seine, that of the largest opening with 140 meters above
the Seine.
Construction
of the Viaduct d' Austerlitz is related to the realization of the N°5
line of the subway in Paris. The constraint of a work with single structure
is essential on the Engineering departments, taking into account its immediate
proximity with the Pont d'Austerlitz , and of the respect of the navigation
of the boats and barges on the Seine. In front of the intensification
of the traffic, the Co of the Subway, decides into 1931 to reinforce the
elements carrier of the apron. The work is weighed down of more than one
third of its weight with more than 275 tons of steel.
