Oddesund Bridge, Combined road and railway bridge in Struer Municipality, Denmark

The Oddesund Bridge extends 488 meters across the strait, connecting the peninsulas of Jutland and Thyholm with both vehicle and train passages.

The bridge construction was completed and officially inaugurated on May 15, 1938, marking a substantial advancement in Danish transportation infrastructure.

This dual-purpose bridge represents the engineering capabilities of 1930s Denmark, serving as a testament to the country's infrastructure development.

The 15-meter wide structure operates as a bascule bridge, allowing maritime vessels to pass underneath while maintaining continuous land transportation.

The bridge integrates two distinct transportation systems - railway and roadway - within a single structure spanning the Oddesund strait.
