The Sardou Bridge is an automobile crossing of the Kansas River at Topeka, Kansas.
It carries two lanes, one south, one north, over the river, and its banks. It is on the outer eastern part of the city. On the north side, it leads to NE Morse Avenue, and on the south to NE Sardou Avenue.
The bridge is named after Charles Sardou, an early settler in the area. The first span of the bridge was destroyed by the 1903 flood, and its replacement washed away in the Great Flood of 1951. The current span opened in 1961, with the opening ceremony ribbon cut by Sardou's great-great-grandson George Robert Sardou.
