Pont de Venterol

The Pont de Venterol is a stone bridge that connects two villages across a valley with a roadway wide enough for vehicles to pass each other safely. The structure spans roughly 53 meters and carries local traffic between the two communities.

The bridge was built in 1864 and has connected these two mountain villages ever since. In the early 2010s it received a major overhaul to reinforce its structure and prepare it for modern traffic demands.

The bridge connects two distinct communities, representing a vital link in the local transportation network that strengthens connections between neighboring municipalities.

The location is easily accessible by car and provides a safe passage across the valley. The roadway is wide enough for vehicles to pass each other comfortably, which keeps traffic flowing smoothly.

The bridge's support cables previously required heating during winter months to prevent freezing, a technical challenge that influenced its modern structural redesign.
