Pierre Pflimlin Bridge, Cantilever road bridge between Neuried and Eschau, Germany and France.

The Pierre Pflimlin Bridge extends 917.7 meters across the Rhine River, featuring a central span of 205 meters constructed with reinforced concrete engineering methods.

The construction project, completed in October 2002, required 18,000 cubic meters of concrete, 760 tonnes of prestressing steel, and 2,700 tonnes of reinforcing steel.

The bridge bears the name of Pierre Pflimlin, a French politician who influenced the development of French-German relations during the post-war period.

The structure includes dedicated lanes for vehicles, pedestrians, and cyclists, connecting the French motorway network to Germany's A5 Hamburg-Frankfurt-Basel route.

Engineers designed the bridge pylons with foundation piles reaching 50 meters deep to withstand earthquakes and potential ship impacts.
