The tallest bridge is 336.4 metres and was achieved by the Millau Viaduct in Millau, France on 16 December 2004.

The bridge was constructed in order to remove a traffic bottleneck in the town of Millau, and thus complete the motorway connecting Paris with the Mediterranean region. The total maximum height is the sum of the height of the tallest pier (pier two), its mast, the roadway and a dip in the valley between piers two and three.
