Brotonne Bridge, Cable-stayed bridge in Normandy, France
The Brotonne Bridge spans 1,278 meters across the Seine River, featuring two concrete pylons that rise 125 meters into the sky.
When it opened in 1977, the Brotonne Bridge marked the first cable-stayed bridge with prestressed concrete construction, connecting Caudebec-en-Caux with Saint-Nicolas-de-Bliquetuit.
The bridge design influenced modern engineering practices, serving as a model for similar structures worldwide, including the Sunshine Skyway Bridge in Florida.
The bridge provides four traffic lanes and maintains a 50-meter clearance above the Seine River, enabling large vessels to pass underneath.
The central span extends 320 meters, demonstrating advanced engineering capabilities through its prestressed concrete construction and fan-arranged cable system.
