The Tromsø Bridge is a road bridge in Tromsø, Norway, connecting Tromsdalen on the mainland with Tromsøya island. The 1,036-metre (3,399 ft) bridge, opened in 1960, was the longest in Northern Europe at the time. It has 58 spans and a maximum clearance of 38 metres (125 ft) to the sea. The bridge replaced a ferry connection and helped boost Tromsø's growth. The bridge is a landmark of Tromsø and is protected against modifications. In 2005, the fencing was raised to prevent suicide.[1][2][3]
