Pont Saint-Michel, Suspension bridge in Toulouse, France
The Pont Saint-Michel stretches 326 meters across the Garonne River, featuring a delta-leg structure made of reinforced concrete that connects both sides of Toulouse.
Built in 1961 under the guidance of architect Eugene Freyssinet, this bridge replaced earlier versions from 1844 and 1884 that served the growing population.
The bridge earned recognition as part of Patrimoine du XXe siècle, marking its significance in French architectural development during the twentieth century.
The structure carries both tram lines and pedestrian traffic, providing essential transportation links between residential areas and the city center of Toulouse.
The bridge combines reinforced concrete engineering with delta-leg design principles, creating a structure that demonstrates mid-20th century construction innovations.
