Pont ferroviaire de Bordeaux, Railway bridge in Bordeaux, France

The railway bridge stretches 476 meters across the Garonne River, constructed with reinforced concrete and metal to support four train tracks.

Inaugurated in 2008, this bridge replaced the previous Eiffel footbridge from 1860, which could no longer handle increasing railway traffic demands.

The bridge represents modern French engineering, designed by architect Jean-Pierre Duval to integrate with Bordeaux's architectural heritage along the Garonne River.

Located near Bordeaux Saint-Jean station, the bridge carries both regional and high-speed trains, connecting Paris to southern France through Bordeaux.

The construction required an investment of 55 million euros and incorporated design elements from the engineering firm that created the Millau Viaduct.
