The Öresundsbro is one part of the connection over Öresund between Malmö in Sweden and Copenhagen in Denmark. The second part is a four kilometre long tunnel and the connection point to the almost eight kilometre bridge is a man made island named Pepparholm.
The bridge has a sail free height of 57 meters and the highest pillar is 203,5 meters. Total length of the connection is 16 kilometres. It has a four lane motorway and beneath a two lane high speed train track. After five years of construction it was inaugurated 1 July 2000. 75 000 passengers travels across this amazing landmark every year.
