Trästa bridge is just next to our house and is one of the attractions around here. The views from and at the bridge are majestic. Sunsets, moonrisings, winter, spring, summer or fall - natures spectacles are breathtaking and you have the front row seat! It almost feels like sitting on a cloud. Heavenly.
Trästa bridge or “Trästabron” is one of the three and the biggest bridges connecting Väddö island with the mainland. Before it was built, there was a ferry across Väddöviken connecting Trästa village on the mainland and Fjäll village on Väddö.
Work on the new bridge began in June 1997 and was carried out under the direction of the Swedish Road Administration. The bridge is designed by an architect Sven Werner. It is 375 meters long and has a clear height of 17 meters. Trästabron was inaugurated in November 1998 and can be used by vehicle traffic, bicycles and pedestrians.
