Passerelle de l'Avre, Iron footbridge and aqueduct between Bois de Boulogne and Saint-Cloud, France
The Passerelle de l'Avre spans 458 meters across the Seine River, featuring a pedestrian walkway alongside water pipes that connect Paris with Saint-Cloud.
The bridge was designed by engineer Gustave Eiffel at the request of Paris authorities to transport water from the Avre River to the city reservoirs.
The structure represents a merge of industrial engineering with public infrastructure, integrating water transport needs with pedestrian connectivity across the Seine.
Cyclists and pedestrians can access the bridge from both Bois de Boulogne and Saint-Cloud sides, with an elevation change of 20 meters across the span.
The structure functions simultaneously as a water transport system and public crossing point, marking the westernmost boundary of Paris.
