Assignment

As part of the ferry-free E39 project, several long fjord crossings are planned. Langenuen is one of these crossing locations.

Solution

Langenuen is a four-lane suspension bridge with a pedestrian and bicycle path that is being evaluated as part of the ferry-free E39 project. Norconsult has conducted a preliminary project for the Norwegian Public Roads Administration, Region West, which has assessed three possible crossings of the Langenuen fjord. The preliminary project is a feasibility study that includes drawing and illustrations of the crossing alternatives, cost assessments, and preliminary calculations of critical wind speed (flutter analysis) for the suspension bridge alternatives.
