Nockebybron

Nockebybron is a 450-meter swing bridge spanning Lake Mälaren and connecting Kärsön in Ekerö County with Nockeby in Stockholm. It features vehicle lanes alongside dedicated paths for cyclists and pedestrians, with a rotating mechanism that allows boat traffic to pass underneath.

The current structure replaced an earlier version in 1973, significantly upgrading transportation infrastructure in Stockholm's western districts. This reconstruction improved connectivity between the shores and modernized crossing options for the surrounding communities.

The bridge serves as a daily crossing for commuters and recreational users moving between the shores. It has become integral to local routines, with people cycling, walking, and during colder months enjoying cross-country skiing activities.

The bridge is accessible to vehicles, cyclists, and pedestrians providing a complete crossing of the lake. Visitors should expect possible delays during swing operations to accommodate boat traffic passing through.

The bridge serves an unusual dual function as both a regional road connection and a dedicated bicycle bridge, blending two distinct transportation purposes. This hybrid design makes it a rare infrastructure solution that addresses multiple travel needs simultaneously.
