Viaduc de la ravine des Trois-Bassins, Cable-stayed bridge in Saint-Paul, France.
The Viaduc de la ravine des Trois-Bassins is a cable-stayed bridge made of reinforced concrete that crosses a deep valley in western Reunion Island. Its design incorporates varying pillar heights to handle the steep terrain below, creating an engineering structure that adapts to the landscape.
Construction of this bridge took place between 2005 and 2009 as part of the Tamarins Road infrastructure project in western Reunion. This development modernized regional transportation and connected previously separated areas more directly.
This viaduct connects different communities of Reunion Island, forming a vital link between Saint-Paul and Etang-Sale regions through modern architectural design.
The best way to experience this bridge is to cross it by vehicle or view it from nearby vantage points in the surrounding area. You can see the structure from below at certain angles in the ravine, which highlights the dramatic height difference created by the pillars.
The support pillars of this viaduct vary dramatically in height, ranging from just 8 meters to 48 meters, as they adapt to the uneven ravine below. These varying heights become noticeably apparent when traveling across the structure.
