Tverlandsbrua

The Tverlandsbrua stretches 670 meters across the Saltfjord, featuring a main span of 180 meters and standing on three twin-structured piers.

The Norwegian Public Roads Administration inaugurated this concrete structure on November 9, 2013, marking a major advancement in northern Norway's infrastructure.

The bridge connects communities in Bodø Municipality, reflecting Norway's commitment to maintaining connections between coastal settlements despite challenging terrain.

The 23-meter-wide deck accommodates multiple traffic lanes, providing a direct route between Løding and Vikan for residents and commercial vehicles.

Engineers designed the bridge with a 4.5 percent longitudinal gradient and spiral transition curves to facilitate smooth traffic flow in extreme weather conditions.
