Nötesundsbron

Nötesundsbron is a steel bridge that spans the narrow strait separating Orust island from the Swedish mainland. The two-lane structure allows vehicles to cross over the waterway that previously required ferry service.

The bridge was built in the mid-1900s to replace the ferry service that once operated between Orust and the mainland. This construction created a permanent road link that integrated the island into Sweden's transportation network.

The structure maintains a traditional Swedish engineering design that reflects the regional approach to connecting islands with mainland territories.

Crossing the bridge is a short and straightforward drive over the narrow strait. Be prepared for windy conditions on the bridge and drive carefully if weather is poor, as the road can become slippery.

The bridge position creates a direct route for transportation between coastal communities, reducing travel times for residents and visitors.
