The Sart Canal Bridge in Houdeng (La Louvière, Hainaut in Belgium) is a girder canal bridge.
It was built between 1998 and 2002, using the prestressed concrete technique, which is an innovation in this category of bridges.
The construction of the aqueduct completes the modernization of the Center canal which connects the Scheldt basin to that of the Meuse.
The Sart aqueduct in Houdeng allows the canal to cross the modernized Center of the Thiriau du Sart valley and the road crossroads (roundabout) between the N55 (Le Rœulx-Binche) and the N535 (La Louvière-Bracquegnies industrial park) near the motorway access (motorway E19-E42: Paris-Brussels: exit no 21).
