The Gjemnessund Bridge monitoring project

The Gjemnessund Bridge monitoring project

The Gjemnessund Bridge, built in 1992, is a 1257 m long suspension bridge crossing the Gjemnessundet strait on the northwestern coast of Norway, in Møre og Romsdal county. The main bridge span is 623 m, which makes it the fith longest suspension bridge in Norway. The box girder is made of steel and the towers of concrete.
