Peab has been commissioned to tear down the existing bridge over Nattviken in central Harnosand and build an openable bridge in the same place. The customer is Harnosand Municipality and the contract is worth SEK 247 million. The current clapboard bridge was inaugurated in 1937 and has now come to the end of its technical life.

The new bridge will be an arch bridge and is inspired by the very first bridge built there at the end of the 1800s. The new bridge will also have a swing section in the middle to let boat traffic through. While the bridge is being built Peab will build a temporary bridge to solve the traffic situation.

The project is a turnkey contract in partnering. Construction will begin in June 2024 and the bridge is expected to be operable in June 2026. The project will be order registered in the first quarter 2024.
