Puddefjord Bridge, Deck arch bridge in Bergen Municipality, Norway.

The Puddefjord Bridge extends 461 meters across the waters, featuring reinforced concrete construction with two adjacent identical structures spanning the inlet.

The bridge opening in 1956 marked a pivotal development for Bergen, enabling direct access between the city center and Laksevåg without ferry dependency.

This infrastructural achievement represents the post-World War II reconstruction period in Norway, reflecting the engineering capabilities of the 1950s Norwegian architects.

The structure carries six lanes of National Road RV 555 and includes dedicated paths for cyclists and pedestrians crossing between Møhlenpris and Gyldenpris.

Daily traffic on this concrete span reaches over 56,000 vehicles, making it one of the most frequented crossing points in western Norway.
