012 Bridge in the rain

Tour of Europe 04 2016

Day 5 c

The New Little Belt Bridge (Nye Lillebæltsbro) in, the rain... yes you guessed ! LOL

Getting closer to our destination, we cross a beautiful bridge.

The New Little Belt Bridge (Nye Lillebæltsbro) is a suspension bridge that crosses the Little Belt strait between Jutland (Jylland) and the island of Funen (Fyn) in Denmark. The bridge is 1700 metres long, the main span is 600 metres, the pylons reaching a height of 120 metres, and the maximum clearance from the sea is 44 meters.

Opened:October 21, 1970, the bridge was constructed to alleviate congestion on the Old Little Belt Bridge due to the increasing car traffic between Jutland and Funen.

It is a motorway on the E20 bridge with three-lane carriageways as opposed to the single lanes of the old bridge. The bridge has heating in the road deck, so it can be kept free of ice and snow in winter.

Passing through Little Belt Bridge is toll free… amazing.

Hope you enjoy?
