Road 222 & New Skurusunds Bridge

The scope of work consists in the accesibility and traffic safety improvement on route 222 and includes the construction of a new bridge over Skurusundet and the subsequent reconstruction of the Skuru and Björknäs junctions. The project also includes the renovation and reconstruction of the existing bridge converted into a pedestrian and bicycle path and a local road.

The new bridge is designed with a streamlined, aerodynamic shape made as transparent as possible to create a connection between the two structures, without the new bridge blocking the view of the old one.

It is composed of 5 spans with a length of 320m and a width of 32m, which includes 2 continuous lanes and 1 lane for public transport. The new bridge is made entirely of steel, with the exception of the lower parts of the 4 piers, which are made of concrete.
