Vaxholmsbron Explained

The Vaxholmsbron is a road bridge that links the islands of Vaxön and Kullö in Sweden's Stockholm archipelago. It carries and was opened in 1965, supplementing the earlier Pålsundsbron in providing a connection between the town of Vaxholm and the Swedish mainland.[1] [2] [3]

There are two parallel spans at the site, with the original metal arch road bridge and a cable-stayed pedestrian and bicycle bridge that has Sweden's longest bridge span built of wood.translated from WP:SV:Länsväg 274 but unsourced there. June 2023.
