Pont du Général-Audibert, Tram bridge in Nantes, France

The Pont du Général-Audibert spans 165 meters across the Loire River, featuring two parallel structures made of reinforced concrete for different traffic directions.

The original bridge from 1923 was destroyed during World War II in 1944, leading to its reconstruction in 1945 to restore vital transportation links.

The bridge received its name in 1958 to honor General Louis-Alexandre Audibert, a resistance leader during the German occupation of France.

The structure accommodates two tram lines, numbered 2 and 3, while simultaneously providing lanes for vehicles, pedestrians, and cyclists crossing the Loire.

The bridge combines an arch design for south-north traffic and a beam construction for north-south movement, representing two distinct engineering approaches.
