    Exemplary: A bridge reserved for non-motorized traffic and the tram.

    Translated by Google •

      The stone bridge is a masonry arched bridge crossing the Garonne river in Bordeaux. It connects the city center to the district of La Bastide, on the right bank: until 1822 the Bordeaux women had to cross the Garonne in boats. It was the first and only Bordeaux bridge allowing road traffic until the construction of the Saint-Jean bridge in 1965. Built by order of Napoleon I between 1810 and 1822, it was designed by engineers Claude Deschamps and Jean- Baptiste Basilide Billaudel. 4,000 workers worked there. With a length of 487 meters, the work has 17 arches built on 16 piers. The bridge, with an initial width of 14.6 meters, increased to a width of 19 meters in 1954. fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pont_de_pierre_(Bordeaux)
      In 2003, two traffic lanes were reserved for the new Bordeaux tramway, and since 2016, due to static problems, the bridge has been reserved only for tram, pedestrians and cyclists.
