In the course of an international competition, the Compagnie Française d'Entreprises has submitted two designs, and the one adopted is a cantilever box section type bridge, prestressed transversally and longitudinally and built by successive overhangs. The present article describes in considerable detail the above road bridge, of three spans, the two end ones being 60 m long, and the centre one is 120 m long. The two middle piles rest on caissons. The overhanging sections of the main span are each 42 m long, and the middle part of the span, which is simply supported on overhanging sections, is 36 m long. The bridge is now open to traffic and is a great aid to the communications network of Honduras.
