Pålsundsbron, Vaxholm

[1] The bridge was opened in 1926 and provided the first fixed link between the town of Vaxholm and the Swedish mainland.

Since 1965 it has been largely replaced in that role by the wider Vaxholmsbron bridge that links to the island of Kullö to the north-west of the town, carrying county road 274 [sv] on its way to the mainland.

The current bridge rests on three concrete foundations and has one narrow carriageway.

The load-bearing structure consists of steel trusses and the navigation clearance is 2.00 metres (6 ft 7 in).

Almost 150 metres (490 ft) of the strait's width is bridged with a road embankment that uses an earlier foundation relating to the 18th century Pålsund battery [sv].
