Greece 1973 - The High Bridge on the Polyphytos Lake under construction

Description:
The "High Bridge" (Ypsili Gefyra) on the artificial lake of Polyphytos is one of the longest bridges in Greece, 1,372 meters long. It is part of the National Road Kozani - Larissa and is located 15 km southeast of Kozani and 7 km northwest of Servia town.
Its construction began in 1972 and was inaugurated on November 6, 1976, when the artificial lake of Polyphytos was created, on the river Aliakmonas.
In the film, the lake has not been created yet and the filmmaker is in a car on the road that passed through the river valley. We watch the towering pillars of the bridge under construction.
Towards the end of the film and as the cinematographer now approaches the town of Servia, we see the entire length of the bridge.
