Tähtiniemi Bridge, Cable-stayed bridge in Heinola, Finland

The Tähtiniemi Bridge extends 924 meters across Lake Ruotsalainen, featuring supporting cables and two towers that reach 105 meters into the sky.

The construction of Tähtiniemi Bridge in November 1993 established a new transportation link for Finnish national road 4, connecting different parts of Heinola.

The bridge design by engineer Pekka Pulkkinen from WSP Finland demonstrates the Finnish commitment to merging infrastructure with natural landscapes.

The bridge structure includes a 22.5-meter-wide roadway that accommodates vehicles traveling on the E75 route while maintaining a 5.25-meter clearance for boats below.

With its 165-meter main span and total length of 924 meters, Tähtiniemi Bridge stands as the second longest bridge structure in Finland.
