Summary

[edit]
Description

A Ponte Vasco da Gama é uma ponte sobre o rio Tejo, na área da Grande Lisboa, ligando o Montijo e Alcochete a Lisboa e Sacavém, muito próximo do Parque das Nações, onde se realizou a Expo 98. Inaugurada a 4 de Abril de 1998, a ponte é a mais longa da Europa e é actualmente a 5ª mais extensa de todo o mundo, com os seus 17,3 km de comprimento, dos quais 10 estão sobre as águas do estuário do Tejo. O vão (comprimento do tabuleiro) do viaduto central é de 420 m. Foi construída a fim de constituir uma alternativa à ponte 25 de Abril para o trânsito que circula entre o norte e o sul do país na zona da capital portuguesa. Aquando da sua construção foi necessário tomar especiais cuidados com o impacto ambiental, visto que atravessa o Parque Natural do Estuário do Tejo, uma importante área à escala europeia de alimentação e nidificação de aves aquáticas. Foi também necessário proceder-se ao realojamento de 300 famílias. O nome da ponte comemora os 500 anos da chegada de Vasco da Gama à Índia, em 1498. É uma das mais altas construções de Portugal, com 148 m de altura. <a href="http://pt.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ponte_Vasco_da_Gama">pt.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ponte_Vasco_da_Gama</a>
