Pont sur le Grand Canal du Havre

The Pont sur le Grand Canal du Havre is a steel bridge spanning approximately 1400 meters across the waterway to connect different districts. The structure features distinctive V-shaped support columns and functions as a major transportation link in the region.

Construction of the bridge finished in 1994 and it opened to traffic in 1995. It was part of a broader program to modernize regional infrastructure and improve transportation connections.

The bridge shapes how the city connects and how people move between neighborhoods in their daily routines. It represents modern urban infrastructure that quietly enables the rhythm of contemporary life in this port city.

The bridge is part of the A29 motorway with a speed limit of 90 kilometers per hour. It is open at all times and provides a direct route between different areas of the city.

The bridge rises approximately 50 meters above the canal and offers drivers a high vantage point over the harbor and surrounding waterways. This height also allows ships to pass underneath and supports port operations.
