The Zdrojowisko Viaduct is a railway viaduct in Zdrojowisko, a part of Nowa Ruda in the Lower Silesian Voivodeship of south-western Poland. It carries the Kłodzko Główne–Wałbrzych Główny railway across the valley of the Jugowski Potok.[1]

The bridge is 148.4 m (487 ft) long and the rail level is about 30 m (98 ft) above the valley floor. It has three masonry piers and four lattice-truss spans with the track running on top.[2]

History

The viaduct stands on railway line no. 286 between Kłodzko Główne and Wałbrzych Główny, a mountain route in Lower Silesia.[3][4]

According to the local heritage summary published by the County of Kłodzko, one of the tracks on the southern spans has been removed, probably since the end of the Second World War.[2]

Description

The viaduct is one of the characteristic engineering structures on line 286. PKP PLK documents list the nearby operating point as Nowa Ruda Zdrojowisko on line 286.[1][5]
