The Rahmede Valley Bridge along the A45 motorway, completed in 1968, spanned the Rahmede Valley and State Road 530, north of Lüdenscheid, Germany. In December 2021, it was permanently closed due to irreparable structural damage and eventually demolished on 7 May 2023.
The bridge superstructure of the new bridge will consist of two sections, one for each direction of travel, with a total of eight piers.
