Pont Philippe-Yacé, Lagoon bridge in Abidjan, Ivory Coast
The Philippe-Yacé Bridge extends 608 meters across the Ébrié Lagoon, connecting the Riviéra quarter in the north with Marcory quarter in the south.
The bridge, constructed between 2012 and 2014, forms part of a 6.7-kilometer motorway development project that changed transportation patterns in Abidjan.
Named to honor the legacy of Philippe Yacé, the bridge represents the advancement of infrastructure development in modern Ivory Coast.
The concrete structure features dedicated vehicle lanes and pedestrian pathways, creating a direct route between northern and southern districts of Abidjan.
A 400-meter dike within the lagoon leads to the main bridge structure, supported by deep piles anchored into the lagoon bed.
