Sommaroybrua

The Sommarøy bridge is a free-build bridge from Kvaløya to Sommarøya in Troms. The bridge is 522 meters long, and the longest span is 120 meters. It is part of county road 7766. Sommarøybrua has only one lane and is therefore equipped with traffic lights to regulate the direction of traffic. But it was reported in 2004 that the traffic lights do not work properly when it is windy, which happens relatively often.
