Pont de Grésin, Suspension bridge in Léaz and Éloise, France.
The steel suspension bridge spans 160 meters across the Rhône River, featuring a main span of 115 meters and rising 20 meters above the water.
Prior to the bridge construction, residents utilized a ferry service dating back to 1460 to transport goods and people between the two municipalities.
The structure represents a significant engineering advancement for the region, marking the shift from traditional river crossings to modern transportation methods.
The bridge connects walking paths on both sides of the river, providing pedestrians with crossing opportunities between Léaz in Ain and Éloise in Haute-Savoie.
The bridge stands in an untamed section of the Rhône valley, where steel cables anchored to twin pylons support the entire crossing structure.
