Frösöbron, Cable-stayed bridge in Östersund, Sweden
Frösöbron is a cable-stayed bridge in Östersund that crosses the water and connects two parts of the city together. It features separate lanes for vehicles and paths for pedestrians and cyclists on both sides.
The bridge was built to create an important transportation connection across the water and improve access within the city. Since then it has fundamentally changed how people and traffic move through the area.
The bridge joins neighborhoods on both sides and is crossed daily by commuters, cyclists, and pedestrians who shape the local rhythm. It has become a regular crossing point where residents' daily lives connect across the waterway.
The pedestrian path is easily accessible and the best way to experience the bridge and views, especially in good weather. Vehicles and bicycles can also use the bridge but should watch for other users.
The cable-stayed design allows a long span across the water without additional supports in the middle. The elegant cable structure makes it a striking structure that stands out from typical bridges.
