Pont Seibert, Steel bridge between Meudon and Boulogne-Billancourt, France
Pont Seibert is a steel structure that crosses the Seine and connects Seguin Island with both riverbanks. It consists of two separate decks that merge into one unified structure, providing two different entry and exit points across the river.
The original bridge was built in 1931 by a German company and served the Renault factory for over 60 years. After factory operations ended in the last decade of the 20th century, the structure was renovated and adapted for the island's new uses.
The bridge connects Seguin Island to the mainland and provides access to the cultural spaces now located there. Today it leads visitors to a place where performances and events happen, showing how the area has moved away from its industrial past.
The crossing is used by pedestrians, cyclists, and public transportation vehicles and links two major transit lines. It is wide enough to accommodate several users at the same time and offers clear views for both navigation and enjoying the riverscape.
The bridge was constructed during renovation using a floating barge system positioned over the river, representing a complex engineering feat. This method allowed traffic to the island to continue while the new structure was being put in place.
