Kulosaari bridge, Transportation bridge in Kulosaari, Finland.
Kulosaari Bridge is a 321-meter concrete and steel structure that connects the island of the same name to mainland Helsinki. The construction carries vehicles, pedestrians, and cyclists daily across the water.
Completed in 1982, this crossing replaced earlier transport methods including a tram bridge that operated since 1919. It marked the end of the ferry era and rail transit on this route.
This crossing links urban Helsinki with the residential island of Kulosaari and shapes daily life on both sides. People use it as a natural passage between two places that feel quite different in character.
The crossing offers open routes for cars, pedestrians, and bikes with reliable access to the city center and metro station. Plan for busy periods and allow extra time during rush hours when traffic builds up.
This crossing sits near a fishing port and unusually links modern city traffic with traditional maritime activities. This setting makes it more than just a traffic corridor.
