Nydal bridge

The Nydal bridge is a cable-stayed road bridge in Trondheim that spans 183 meters across a valley to connect different parts of the city. Its two main towers rise 55 meters high and support the roadway through steel cables, built from prestressed concrete and asphalt.

The bridge was completed and opened in 2023 as a modern addition to Trondheim's transportation network. It represents contemporary engineering infrastructure built to improve traffic connections in the region.

The bridge design incorporates Norwegian engineering principles through its combination of prestressed concrete, steel, and rock asphalt construction materials.

The bridge blends into the regular traffic flow of Trondheim and can be crossed by car or vehicle like any standard road. You will have a clear view of the valley below and the surrounding areas while driving or walking across it.

The structure received the Betongtavlen award, which recognizes excellence in concrete construction and engineering achievement. This recognition highlights how professionals in the building industry valued the design and technical quality of the project.
