Pont Aristide-Briand, Concrete bridge in Loire River, Nantes, France.

The Pont Aristide-Briand extends 170 meters across the Loire River, constructed with reinforced concrete connecting two sections of Nantes.

Built between 1962 and 1966, the bridge represents a significant addition to Nantes' transportation infrastructure during the city's post-war development period.

The bridge carries the name of Nantes-born Aristide Briand, who served as French Prime Minister eleven times and received the Nobel Peace Prize in 1926.

The structure accommodates vehicles, pedestrians, cyclists, and the Line 4 Busway, linking Avenue Jean-Claude-Bonduelle to Boulevard General-De-Gaulle.

Six longitudinal beams support this three-span mixed bridge, which crosses the Madeleine arm of the Loire north of Nantes Island.
