Green bridge

This bridge beats by far all other bridges in the world, too bad it’s just a concept. However i’m pretty sure we will see designs like this in the future. When i think about it, why the heck don’t you have anything under the bridge’s, what a waste of space..

This Solar Wind concept is the brainchild of designers Francesco Colarossi, Giovanna Saracino and Luisa Saracino, who came second in a competition to dream up a bridge spanning the Italian areas of Bagnara and Scilla.

If chosen, the solar highway would stretch 12.4 miles, with the bridge’s wind turbines generating enough electricity to power 15,000 houses a year. Naturally the solar panels would also generate electricity, and the greenhouses would allow passing drivers to buy roadside fruit and vegetables from indie growers.
