🌉 San Patricio Bridge

San Patricio bridge is a bridge which supports the Tempul aqueduct as it passes over the River Guadalete, near the town of La Barca de la Florida, in the municipality of Jerez de la Frontera in Spain. Designed in 1925 by the engineer Eduardo Torroja and built under the direction of the engineer Francisco Ruiz Martínez, is considered one of the first exponents of the use of prestressed concrete in Spain. At the time of its construction it became the cable-stayed bridge with the largest span in the world, with 57 metres.
