Verftsbrua

The bridge, built in 2003, spans 125 metres (410 ft).

[1] The name Verftsbrua comes from the nearby shipyard, Trondhjems mekaniske Værksted, while the name Blomsterbrua is due to the bridge featuring flowerbeds along its edges.

It was built so people could reach the centre of the city without taking a long detour.

Boats up to a height of 6 metres (20 ft) can pass the bridge, with a channel width of 12.5 metres (41 ft).

The bridge is retractable, and can be opened to allow taller boats to pass.
