Pont Sous-Terre, Road bridge in Geneva, Switzerland.
The Pont Sous-Terre spans 90.5 meters across the Rhône River, connecting the Saint-Jean and La Jonction districts with a 6 percent slope.
Before the current concrete structure built in 1968, a wooden footbridge from 1891 allowed pedestrians to cross between Saint-Jean and La Jonction districts.
During the bridge construction, workers discovered the foundation remains of the Saint-Jean Priory, which had disappeared since its demolition in 1535.
The bridge carries approximately 26,000 vehicles daily and includes a temporary pedestrian walkway that was installed in 1976 on one side.
This concrete structure stands as the last bridge within Geneva city limits and the sixth bridge upstream from Lake Geneva on the Rhône River.
