Description
The river measures about 75 meters wide where this bridge crosses it. The upper part of the parapet is made up of shale slabs arranged flat, and it varies in a varied way on each side of the entries. The apron is based on five arches whose curvature is slightly lowered. Between the abutments, these arches are based on batteries supported by small buttresses, tilted back in the shape of an almond on the downstream side, and in triangle towards the upstream. A cross was installed on this deck, with a cubic stone base placed at the tip of the central counterfort triangle.
