Notes:

• Failed when almost complete in 1826. MOS: "On the 6th of September, a water-pipe, which was laid in the ground on the side of the Champs Elysées, and came near the abutments on that side of the river, burst, and, softening the ground about the abutment, it gave way under the strain produced by the weight of the bridge."
• Replaced by 1829 Invalides (l'Allee-d'Antin) - Paris, France.

Notes:

• 1882: Wrecked by wind. Rebuilt with two main suspension spans instead of one.
• Replaced by La Roche-Guyon - La Roche-Guyon, Val-d'Oise and Yvelines, France.

Notes:

• Likely destroyed in 1870 during Franco-Prussian war to prevent advance of the Prussian army.
• Later at same location 1920 Les Andelys - Les Andelys, Eure, France. The 1920 bridge was not an immediate replacement.

Notes:

• Coordinates indicate the approximate former location of this bridge.

Notes:

• Completed in 1914 but not opened until 1920.
• The present-day Les Andelys bridge appears to have been constructed on the same piers as this predecessor.
• Demolished in June 1940 by the French army to slow advancing German troops during WWII.
• At former location of 1838 Les Andelys - Les Andelys, Eure, France. The 1920 bridge was not an immediate replacement. A stone arch bridge replaced the 1838 suspension bridge destroyed in 1870. The arch bridge was replaced by this (1920) suspension bridge.
• Replaced by 1947 Les Andelys - Les Andelys, Eure, France.

Notes:

• This bridge was originally built with the Gisclard suspension system. Such bridges are not included in the Bridgemeister suspension bridge inventory. However, at some point the suspension system was modified to be more similar to a standard suspension bridge. It isn't clear when this modification occurred.
• Near Créteil (Saint-Maur) - Créteil-sur-Marne and Saint-Maur-des-Fossés, Val-de-Marne, France.

Notes:

• Large temporary footbridge built on the piers of the arch bridge destroyed in 1941. This was likely two separate, similar suspension bridges crossing the channels on both sides of Rangiport Island.

Notes:

• A temporary suspension footbridge erected on the piers of the former Triel-sur-Seine suspension bridge.
• Replaced 1838 Triel-sur-Seine - Triel-sur-Seine and Vernouillet, Yvelines, France.

Notes:

• This record represents the bridge as rebuilt with the midspan pier in the 1880s.
• Ann Saul sent a synopsis of this bridge's history from La Roche-Guyon, Bourg Feodal de l'Ancien Vexin Francais by Ernest Colas. "The author states that the bridge was built in 1838, originally with two pylons, one on each bank of the Seine. In 1882, gale force winds turned over a wide stretch of the bridge floor. Afterwards, another pylon was placed in the middle of the river; however, the bridge was not considered stable enough for modern transportation (the automobile, perhaps). Plans were made for a new bridge and the old one was demolished. The new bridge was never built because of World War I."
• Replaced 1838 La Roche-Guyon - La Roche-Guyon, Val-d'Oise and Yvelines, France.

Notes:

• Unclear where this bridge was located relative to the better known 1843 multi-span suspension bridge at Elbeuf. It appears to be crossing a smaller arm of the Seine between Elbeuf and Saint-Aubin.
• See 1843 Elbeuf - Elbeuf and Saint-Aubin-lès-Elbeuf, Seine-Maritime, France.
