Road review: Vasco da Gama bridge

Vasco da gama bridge

Type: Highway with 3 lanes
Landscape: 9/10
Pavement: 7/10
Car: Audi A4 van 1.9
Length: 17.2 km
Speed limit: 120 km/h

This is one of the longest bridges in Europe with stunning views over the Tagus river. Feels very woobly even on a car with a great suspension, which is made worse by the frquent metal links among slabs. Do not take a car with even the slight sporting suspension to this piece of road.
