The Uddevalla Bridge is a cable-stayed bridge crossing Sunninge sound near Uddevalla in the province of Bohuslän on the west coast of Sweden. The bridge was constructed as part of the rerouting of the European route E06 outside Uddevalla, which reduced traffic congestion in the city and shortened traveling distance by 12 kilometers.
The total length is 1,712 m (5,617 ft), with a main span of 414 m (1,358 ft), there are a number of small approach spans at each end, and the two cable stayed side spans are 179 m (587 ft) each. It is 23.3 m (76 ft) wide, the clearance below the bridge is 51 m (167 ft), and the two pylons are 149 m (489 ft) high. The cables are organised in a semi-fan arrangement.
The bridge was constructed in 1996–2000 and was opened for traffic on 20 May 2000.
