Fredvang Bridges

The Fredvang Bridges (Fredvangbruene) are two cantilever bridges that connect the fishing village of Fredvang on the island of Moskenesøya with the neighboring island of Flakstadøya &mdash; in Flakstad Municipality, Nordland county, Norway.

The south bridge is called Kubholmleia Bridge (Kubholmleia bru) and the north bridge is Røssøystraumen Bridge (Røssøystraumen bru). The two bridges are each 240 m long, with a cantilevered center span of 115 m.

The bridges, which opened in 1988, are among many bridges that interconnect the islands of the Lofoten archipelago. The only other bridge connecting these two islands is the Kåkern Bridge.
