Pont de Wandre, Steel bridge in Herstal, Belgium
The Pont de Wandre extends 524 meters across the Meuse River and Albert Canal, featuring a single concrete pillar rising to 88.5 meters.
Prior to the current structure, multiple bridges existed at this location since 1884, with the present bridge opening in 1989 after four years of construction.
The bridge, designed by Bureau Greisch, represents a milestone in Belgian engineering and holds protected heritage status in the Wallonia region.
The structure carries the N667 road with a 22-meter wide roadway, connecting the municipalities of Herstal and Liège for vehicles and pedestrians.
The bridge utilizes an inverted Y-shaped concrete pillar as its main support, incorporating cable-stay technology to span both waterways simultaneously.
