Karlbergsbron, Bicycle bridge in Stockholm, Sweden.

Karlbergsbron is a bridge spanning the Karlberg Canal in northern Stockholm that carries both a bicycle path and a controlled-access roadway. It connects different areas of the city and allows both vehicles and cyclists to cross the water safely.

The current high bridge opened in the 1970s together with the Pampas interchange, of which it forms part. It lies about 100 metres west of Ekelundsbron, the former low Karlbergsbron. In April 1967 Nils Hallerby, city commissioner for planning, and Solna municipality decided to transfer the name Karlbergsbron to the new high bridge and rename the low one Ekelundsbron, despite the city naming committee's proposal to call the high bridge Hornsbergsbron.

The name Karlbergsbron was transferred from the old low bridge over the Karlberg Canal, which was renamed Ekelundsbron. Stockholm's naming committee wanted the low bridge to keep its name and proposed Hornsbergsbron for the new one, but in April 1967 the city building commissioner Nils Hallerby and Solna municipality decided otherwise.

The bridge is part of Essingeleden and leads over the Karlberg Canal between Stockholm and Solna, continuing north into the Pampas interchange. The western high bridge is 510 metres long with 17 spans, the eastern 560 metres with 19 spans. The clearance over the canal is 16.8 metres, but this height comes from Essingeleden's elevated alignment, not from ship passage: vessels use Ekelundsbron, whose clearance is 5.1 metres.
