The 'Île d'Orléans Bridge', known locally as the 'Pont de l'Île', is a suspension bridge that spans the Saint Lawrence River between Montmorency Falls, in Quebec City, and Île d'Orléans (Isle of Orleans) in the Canadian province of Quebec. This suspension bridge was constructed in 1934 to answer a electoral promise made by Premier Louis-Alexandre Taschereau to Montmorency County. Before, the island was accessible by ferry.
It is the furthest downstream of the Saint Lawrence River's fixed crossings, although it does not cross the entire river.
