[edit]- Notes
- ^ The remains of the Vussem Aqueduct-bridge are a partial reconstruction built in 1960 to show how the original must have looked.[3]
- ^ The piles of this Roman bridge are mostly original and were built between 144 and 152 AD, the vaults will be rebuilt in 1716-1718. The existence of a wooden bridge is however attested from -17 BC. J.C. Other older Roman bridges existed but did not survive until our days.
- ^ The length given only takes into account the main bridge, central span(s) and shore span(s), approach viaducts are not counted.
- ^ The tripoint border between Germany, France and Switzerland is situated about 100 metres (330 ft) south of the Three Countries Bridge, so the bridge is on the France–Germany border but doesn't cross exactly the France–Switzerland border.
