Hvítá bridge

The Hvítá bridge (Icelandic: Hvítárbrú [ˈkʰviːtˌaurˌpruː], unofficial name) is a single-lane road bridge opened in 1928 traversing the Hvítá river in western Iceland. It is a reinforced concrete bridge consisting of two arches with a total length of 106 metres (348 ft). Until the opening of the bridge over the Borgarfjörður at Borgarnes in 1981, it was part of the main road connection between northern and southern Iceland. On the 2002 anniversary convention of Verkfræðingafélag Islands, the Icelandic engineering association, the bridge was awarded the most outstanding Icelandic engineering project of the 1921-1930 decade.
