There was a really good documentary on the construction of this on Discovery a while ago. It is located in southern France, and is the highest bridge in the world. See:
Visit Wikipedia for details of location and construction. It is a truly amazing piece of engineering, especially
considering the method used to span the distance between the piers. By the way, the red towers you see in the photo were removed following completion of the bridge.
