The Wiesental Bridge in the town of Lörrach is the third longest road bridge in Baden-Württemberg at 1201 meters and is also one of the longest in Germany. It is part of the A 98 between Luckepass and Homburg Forest and crosses the river Wiese, the federal highway 317, the Grütt landscape park and the Wiesental railroad from north to south. The four-lane highway route is curved in plan and rises to the south towards the slope. As Lörrach is located in the highest German earthquake zone, the structure was designed to be earthquake-proof.[2] Since it was opened to traffic in 1983, the Wiesental Bridge has continued the A 98 in an easterly direction. An automatic counting station at the east portal measures the traffic volume on the bridge. In 2020, around 23,000 vehicles used the structure every day, with heavy goods vehicles accounting for a good 10%. Most of the piers of the Wiesental Bridge were officially approved for legal graffiti by the city of Lörrach in summer 2010. Since then, the pillar images have become known nationwide as the Bridge Gallery.
