Pont du Larivot, Road bridge in Matoury and Macouria, French Guiana.

The Larivot Bridge extends 1225 meters across the Cayenne River, connecting the municipalities of Matoury and Macouria with two traffic lanes and pedestrian paths.

The bridge opened in 1976 following the establishment of the Guiana Space Center, marking a shift from ferry transportation to permanent river crossings.

The structure serves as a vital connection point for French Guiana communities, supporting daily movement between major population centers and the space center.

Located on National Route 1, the bridge provides essential access to Cayenne Airport and functions as the main transportation link for goods and passengers.

A new 1343-meter bridge structure is under construction 40 meters downstream, featuring 70-meter hyperstatic spans to complement the existing crossing.
