(Subject to Option Inclusions)Itinerary
Ponte D. Maria PiaPass-by Only
The D. Maria Pia Bridge is a railway infrastructure that transported the North Line over the Douro River, between the towns of Porto and Vila Nova de Gaia, in northern Portugal. It was inaugurated on 4 November 1877 and closed on 24 June 1991 and was replaced by the St. John Bridge. It is considered, along with the Viaduct of Garabit, as the greatest masterpieces executed by engineer Gustave Eiffel. At the time of its inauguration, it was the bridge with the largest iron bow in the world. It has been classified as a National Monument since 1982.
Luis I BridgePass-by Only
The D. Louis I Bridge (or Luiz I Bridge, in the original graph in it), is a bridge in metal structure with two boards, built between 1881 and 1886, connecting the cities of Porto and Vila Nova de Gaia (northern and southern bank, respectively) separated by the river Douro, in Portugal. This construction came to replace the old pencil bridge that existed in the same place and was carried out through the project of the Belgian engineer Théophile Seyrig, who had previously collaborated with Gustave Eiffel in the construction of the D. Maria Pia Bridge, a railway plant. The bridge was inaugurated in 1886 (upper board) and 1888 (inferior board and entrance in full operation). The D. Louis I Bridge has been classified as a Public Interest Real Estate since 1982 and as a UNESCO World Heritage Site since 1996.
Ponte da ArrabidaPass-by Only
The Arrábida Bridge is a bridge over the Douro River that connects Porto with Vila Nova de Gaia in Portugal. Since the 1930s it was necessary to create alternative connections to the old bridges (bridges D. Maria Pia and D. Louis) in order to respond to the growing flow of road traffic. At the time of its construction in 1963, the bridge had the largest armed concrete bow of any bridge in the world. The total length of the platform is 614,6m, having a width of 26.5m. Its 270 m, and 52 m of arrow, this bow consists of two paralel hollow ribs, 8 m wide linked to each other by longitudinal and transversal contraventation. It had two rolling tracks and two side tracks for pedestrians and cyclists. In the 1990s the number of road lanes was changed.
