Pont de Paris, Cable-stayed bridge in Andorra la Vella, Andorra
The Puente de París is a cable-stayed bridge crossing the Gran Valira river in Andorra la Vella. It features a steel supporting structure with a concrete deck and a single steel pylon.
The bridge was built in 2006 and connects Avenida Consell d'Europa with surrounding neighborhoods. It marked an important step forward for the city's transportation network.
The bridge shows how Andorra fits modern construction into its mountain landscape while serving both drivers and cyclists. Visitors can see how contemporary design connects with the natural setting of the valley.
The bridge operates as a one-way street for vehicles with separate bicycle lanes on both sides. Pay attention to traffic direction and use the marked cycling paths when riding.
The structure was specially designed to withstand the extreme weather conditions found at Andorra's high altitude. This adaptation to the alpine environment is visible in the framework's details.
