TANA BRIDGE

The new cable-stayed Tana Bru Bridge, in Cape North area, is on the main road connecting Norway with Russia. It replaces the old light suspension bridge which was deemed to be structurally deficient and had major weight restrictions in force.
The bridge, crossing Tana river, which is famous for quality salmon fishing, has a total length of 260m with main span of 190m. There is a 95m asymmetric pylon, and 22 cable stays made from FLC 124 and FLC 140 with maximum length equal to 183m and up to 17t per single cable.

Teufelberger-Redaelli has managed the whole cable supply and installation following and performing according to the highest Norwegian requirements and working in a challenging low temperature environment. The bridge and cables are illuminated with colourful LEDs, reminding the spectacular auroras of this area and becoming a new iconic structure in the region.
