Pont de la rue Riquet, Road bridge at rue Riquet, 19th arrondissement, France.

The Pont de la rue Riquet spans railway tracks from Gare de l'Est, connecting rue Riquet with rue d'Aubervilliers in northern Paris.

Built above the La Chapelle pass between Montmartre and Chaumont hills, the bridge underwent elevation modifications in 1961 to accommodate new railway requirements.

The bridge bears the name of Pierre-Paul Riquet, the French engineer who designed major water infrastructure projects across France in the 17th century.

The bridge crosses multiple railway lines, including the Paris-Est to Strasbourg-Ville route and the RER E commuter rail service of Île-de-France.

The structure marks the natural passage between two notable hills of Paris, serving as a crucial link in the urban transport network.
