Captions This year, the Öresund Bridge turns 25! 🎉 🌉 🇸🇪 ❤️ 🇩🇰
Connecting Sweden and Denmark since the year 2000, this engineering marvel is more than just a bridge – it's a 16-kilometre link comprising bridge, artificial island and underwater tunnel.
🚄 🚗 Every day, thousands of people use the link between Swedish city Malmö and Danish capital Copenhagen to travel by car or train. This link means that the commute between the two city centres only takes 45 minutes.
So why both a bridge and tunnel? The four-kilometre underground section was built to ensure that large ships could continue passing through the Öresund strait, as well as to avoid disruptions to air traffic around Copenhagen Airport. ✈️
Peberholm, the artificial island where the bridge transitions into tunnel, has intentionally been left to evolve naturally. It has become a thriving biodiversity hotspot, home to some 600 plant species and 30 bird species. A great example of nature flourishing when untouched! 🌱
Happy birthday, Öresund Bridge! Here’s to at least 25 more years of connection. 🎂
