Fredhällsbron

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Fredhällsbron (Swedish: "The Fredhäll Bridge") is a bridge in central Stockholm, Sweden. It connects the island Lilla Essingen to Fredhäll, a district on the island Kungsholmen, and, forming a section of the Essingeleden motorway, connects the Lilla Essingen interchange to the tunnel Fredhällstunneln.

The bridge is made of pre-stressed concrete cellular sections forming two parallel, separate roadways, each 270 metres long and 14,8 metres wide with horizontal clearances of 9 metres.[1]

In 2004, 19,084 private cars per day entered Stockholm over Fredhällsbron, a number decreased by 38% during the Stockholm congestion tax trial in 2006. [2]
