Construction of the new Ölfusá bridge has reached a significant milestone as the structure is currently being moved across the river. The process, which began on Tuesday, involves pulling the bridge from the eastern bank toward the western side. According to the Icelandic Road and Coastal Administration (Vegagerðin), the bridge is being moved in 50-centimeter increments. The entire operation, covering a distance of 330 meters, is expected to take between eight and ten days to complete. The bridge, which weighs approximately 2,000 tons, was manufactured in sections in Poland. The project is currently on schedule, with the new bridge expected to be fully operational by the autumn of 2028. Article source: Vísir | Image credit: Vísir
