Anecdote

At Bonnières, the bridge crossing the Seine towards Bennecourt consists of two successive road bridges, separated by the « Grande île »: the first spans the main, navigable arm, the second the Gloton arm. It carries departmental road 201, which links Bonnières-sur-Seine to Giverny, in the Eure. Ten bus lines of the Mantois network serve the station.
