Pont de Seyssel, Cable-stayed bridge in Seyssel, France

The Pont de Seyssel extends 220 meters across the Rhône River, connecting the municipalities of Seyssel in Ain and Haute-Savoie departments.

The current bridge, completed in 1987, replaced a suspended bridge from 1840 that was originally constructed to improve transportation after multiple wooden structures failed.

The bridge represents a link between two distinct administrative regions, facilitating exchanges between communities on both sides of the Rhône River.

The structure maintains a height of 55 meters above the water level and accommodates regular vehicle traffic between the eastern and western banks.

Engineers Jean-Vincent Berlottier and Alain Spielmann designed this modern cable-stayed bridge as part of regional infrastructure improvements in Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes.
