East HSL (Stage 1), seen at its very East end.

This bridge will accommodate the "Up" track (viz. Paris-bound). It will also secure a smooth track-changeover (right/left) on the HSL. One can guess pretty easily where the "Down" track (viz. Eastbound) will join the conventional line, and thence how the change-over will take place...

This pic was made from the rear car of EC 90 "Vauban" (Milano Centrale-Bruxelles Midi/Brussel Zuid).
