Tunnel Bridge
Neato.Things, Pictures May 4th, 2006
The bridge (or should it be called tunnel) goes under water to allow movement of ships. In order for ships to pass, this bridge is half under the water. You drive down in the water and then come out on the other side. Truly a marvelous piece of engineering!
This bridge is between Sweden and Denmark . Picture taken from the side of Sweden. Perhaps they are going home to after shopping at IKEA?
Update: Guess what this bridge is not in Sweden nor is it in Denmark. It is in the US around the Newport News area in Virginia.

That’s pretty cool…another amazing feat of bridge engineering! I am sure they thought of this, but I wonder what happens if water levels change…

HI, Just thought I would let you know..I pass the Öresundsbron often, and that is not it. That bridge, if I remember correctly is the cheasepeak bridge in Virgina. Passed it back in 1995.Cheers

A friend of mine lives in NewPort News, Virginia. He says he crosses this bridge every day. Great photo, wrong country.
