The Binational Bridge provides the road connection between Oiapoque and Saint-Georges in French Guiana. Built through cooperation between Brazil and France, it opened to traffic on 18 March 2017. Its history brings together engineering, diplomacy and movement across the border.

Observe how the structure joins the banks of a river that is also a shared living environment. Seeing or photographing the bridge and making an international crossing are different experiences: plan the latter beforehand and consult the authorities about requirements for your nationality and transport.

Historical timetables and rules should not guide a current journey. Confirm border-post operations, required documents and return arrangements before departing. Avoid stopping in traffic areas or restricted zones to take photographs.
