0 a long, high bridge, usually held up by many arches, that carries a railway or a road over a valley: --
a railway viaduct
1 a high bridge that carries a road or railroad over an area that is difficult to cross, such as a deep valley, very wet land, or the steep side of a hill: --
Does that mean that the board will be entitled to demolish the viaduct?
I understand that the work that was done on the viaduct before the war had to be done because that part of it was unsafe.
We recently carried out a successful experiment to test the feasibility of spreading urea on the viaducts.
In the past 10 years, there has been no programme to replace the bearings or bearing plinths on any of the viaducts.
It is ludicrous to say that the only solution is to build another viaduct alongside it.
After all that effort the embankment had to be abandoned and a viaduct was built instead.
The first was a road partly on an embankment alongside the railway and on a viaduct over it.
I had to spend eight hours a day in a railway booking office situated under a viaduct.
