Pont Saint-Hubert, Suspension bridge in Plouër-sur-Rance and La Ville-ès-Nonais, France.
Pont Saint-Hubert is a road suspension bridge carrying the D366 across the Rance between Le Port Saint-Hubert in Plouër-sur-Rance, Côtes-d'Armor, and Le Port Saint-Jean in La Ville-ès-Nonais, Ille-et-Vilaine. It is 286 m long with a 173 m main span, two traffic lanes and footways on both sides. The towers are reinforced concrete; the deck of the main span is stiffened by steel lattice trusses outside the railings.
An original bridge was constructed between 1913 and 1928, but it was destroyed by bombing in 1944 during World War II. The current structure was built in 1959 to replace the damaged crossing.
The bridge represents a significant engineering achievement in Brittany, marking the connection between the Côtes-d'Armor and Ille-et-Vilaine departments.
The bridge carries the D366 with two traffic lanes and footways on both sides. Since October 2025 it has been fully closed for a 30-month restoration after an inspection found weaknesses in the structure. The Pont Châteaubriand, a few dozen metres downstream, remains the alternative crossing.
The first bridge, planned from 1901 and finished in 1928, mixed inclined stays in the outer thirds of the main span with vertical hangers only in the middle third, a layout typical of bridges designed or influenced by Ferdinand Arnodin. It was 260 m long with a 170 m span.
