New bridge over the Hoover Dam

New bridge over the Hoover Dam
Hoover Dam is on Route 93 (Route 93), which lies at the north-south direction and connects with the Canadian Arizona border.
Part of the highway adjacent to the dam does not match the line and the volume of traffic transmitted. To change the situation at the end of 2010 was carried out commissioning of a new road bridge - Hoover Dam Bypass - through Black Canyon. bridge is two parallel reinforced concrete arches, curved upward, ending at the coast, which are based on vertical piers used to support the upper spans the roadway of the bridge.
