The vertical lift bridge Gustave Flaubert over the river Seine, Rouen, France
The new Pont Gustave Flaubert is the sixth crossing of the River Seine in the city of Rouen. The bridge will also introduce a new concept in that it will be able to undergo lifting operations to allow large vessels (cruise ships and sailing ships up to 40,000dwt) to proceed past it up the river to the centre of the city. The structure will have a novel platform lifting concept, a butterfly-shaped cross-leverage system.
