Bridge of Saint-Just-Saint-Rambert

Bridge of Saint-Just-Saint-Rambert, Concrete bridge in Saint-Just-Saint-Rambert, France

The Bridge of Saint-Just-Saint-Rambert, also called the Grand Pont sur la Loire, is a self-anchored suspension bridge over the Loire. Its deck is a twin-girder mixed structure with three continuous spans of 35, 200 and 35 metres, carrying a 2x2-lane road 20.55 metres wide. Two triangular pylons support cables that form inclined planes, and the reinforced-concrete abutments, weighing 7,000 tonnes each, are rigidly connected to the deck.

Studies for the bridge ran from 2003 to 2006 under the Loire departmental council, with QUADRIC and STRATES. In a public vote, 84% chose the triangular-pylon design over a conventional one. Earthworks began in January 2006, the deck was pushed into place in December 2006 and January 2007, and the bridge was inaugurated on 13 December 2008, opening to traffic two days later.

The bridge received its current name 'Pont Pascal Clément' in 2021, honoring the former president of the Loire Departmental Council who initiated its construction.

The bridge carries the RD 498 deviation, a 2x2-lane road linking the A72 interchange to Bonson; the Loire is crossed in a single 200 m span with no pier in the river. The deck is 20.55 m wide, with a 3.0 m fast lane and a 3.50 m slow lane on each side of a central median. It is a road structure with no pedestrian or cycle facilities described.

The deck rests on three continuous spans of 35, 200 and 35 metres, carried by 25 main bridge sections spaced every 7.692 metres. The two cable planes lean inward toward the tops of the triangular pylons instead of running parallel.
