A bridge over the river Lerez in Pontevedra city, Spain. About 168 m long and with a 22 meter wide floor (four motorways plus walkways). The structure is made of two-stretch concrete arches, each covering a distance of 84 m. The bridge aims at maximum economy, with a effect of “large seagull wings” softly lying on still shallow water.
