Saint-Pierre-de-Bœuf Dam

Highlight • Other

The retention dam, located between the municipalities of Saint-Pierre-de-Boeuf – from which it takes its name – and Saint-Maurice-l’Exil, crosses the natural arm of the Rhône (right arm), connecting the town of Saint-Pierre-de-Boeuf to the Île de la Platière on the left bank. The 140 m wide dam has six 20 m passes equipped with 12 m high gates, separated by 4 m thick concrete piers. The dam bridge is a 174 m long reinforced concrete girder bridge (168.80 m opening), with seven 28 m spans. Over a width of 8.80 m, it carries a 6 m long, two-lane, two-way roadway, bordered by two sidewalks lined with parapets made of mixed material (concrete-metal). The upstream sidewalk is separated from the roadway by a low wall. Shelters are located on the downstream side of the piers. The ViaRhône cycle path continues on both sides.
