The Fredvang Bridges ( Norwegian: Fredvangbruene) are two cantilever bridges that connect the fishing village of Fredvang on the island of Moskenesøya with the neighboring island of Flakstadøya — in Flakstad Municipality, Nordland county, Norway.
The south bridge is called Kubholmleia Bridge ( Norwegian: Kubholmleia bru) and the north bridge is Røssøystraumen Bridge ( Norwegian: Røssøystraumen bru). The two bridges are each 240 metres (790 ft) long, with a cantilevered center span of 115 metres (377 ft). [1] [2] [3]
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.
