The San Joaquin River Viaduct is a bridge built to carry California High-Speed Rail over the San Joaquin River.
Most of the bridge is in the city of Fresno, California, in Fresno County, although the portion north of the center line of the river is in Madera County. It is the second major river crossing built for the high-speed rail line, after the Fresno River Viaduct to the north.[1]
The 4,741-foot (1,445 m) bridge combines a double concrete arch span crossing the river with a pergola structure to carry the high-speed tracks over Union Pacific Railroad Fresno Subdivision tracks.[2][3][4] The river crossing is immediately upstream of the Union Pacific and California State Route 99 bridges.[1][5]
