Pont Édouard Daladier, Steel bridge in Avignon, France.
The Pont Édouard Daladier is a steel structure spanning the Rhône River, connecting the eastern and western parts of Avignon. It accommodates multiple lanes of traffic alongside dedicated spaces for pedestrians and cyclists.
The bridge opened in 1960 to address growing transportation demands between the Gard and Vaucluse departments. It was built during a period when Avignon's infrastructure was being modernized to support increased mobility needs.
The bridge takes its name from Édouard Daladier, a politician who shaped Avignon's development. The crossing links communities on both sides of the river and symbolizes the city's growth during the modern era.
The bridge is located near the city center and provides direct vehicle access along with safe pathways for crossing on foot. Off-peak times offer a more pleasant experience for pedestrians navigating the structure.
The bridge connects two distinctly different parts of the city, opening new urban areas to development. This connection marked a turning point in how Avignon could expand beyond the river's traditional boundary.
