Pont Saint-Jean de Bordeaux, Road bridge in Bordeaux, France
The Pont Saint-Jean stretches 474 meters across the Garonne River with eight spans supported by five sets of concrete piers.
Construction of the bridge started in April 1963 and Interior Minister Roger Frey with Mayor Jacques Chaban-Delmas inaugurated it on April 4, 1965.
The bridge design reflects 1960s engineering practices, featuring a pre-stressed concrete structure that connects Saint-Jean railway station to the Bastide district.
The structure accommodates six traffic lanes divided equally in both directions, with additional separate paths for pedestrians and cyclists crossing the Garonne.
From the bridge's vantage point, visitors can observe two parallel railway bridges: the Passerelle Eiffel and Pont Garonne to the south.
