Designed by the DVVD architecture, design and engineering agency, the overpass on the Loing links the municipalities of Saint-Mammès and Veneux-les-Sablons, in the department of Seine-et-Marne. More than just a connecting structure, this is a sculptural work which banks upon simplicity and elegance in design to enhance an equally remarkable site.
