Höga Kusten Bridge
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The High Coast Bridge (in Swedish Högakustenbron) is a suspension bridge crossing the Ångermanälven river near Veda, on the border between the Härnösand and Kramfors municipalities in the province of Ångermanland in northern Sweden. The area is often referred to as The High Coast, hence its name. The bridge replaces Sandöbron, the old bridge across the river, in a new extension of the European route E4 (E4).
The total length is 1,800 metres (5,906 ft), the span is 1,210 metres (3,970 ft), and the column pillars are 180 metres (591 ft) tall. The bridge was constructed between 1993 and 1997 and was officially opened on December 1, 1997.
