Second Abidjan Bridge, Road bridge in Abidjan, Ivory Coast.

The Second Abidjan Bridge spans 592 meters across the Ébrié Lagoon with ten structural spans made of prestressed concrete and hollow box construction.

Architect Henri Chomette designed this infrastructure project, which received its official name Pont Général-de-Gaulle to honor the former French leader.

The bridge strengthens the connection between different communities of Abidjan, supporting the development of local markets and neighborhood interactions.

This structure provides an essential route for vehicles crossing the Ébrié Lagoon, reducing travel time between northern and southern parts of Abidjan.

The bridge construction utilized advanced engineering methods that eliminated the need for temporary support structures during the building process.
