Bridge 路 Norway

How much did the Skarnsund Bridge in Norway cost to build?

The Skarnsund Bridge (Skarnsundbrua) is a cable-stayed bridge across the Skarnsundet strait between Mosvik and Inder酶y in Tr酶ndelag, Norway, 1,010 metres long with a main span of 530 metres, which was the world's longest cable-stayed bridge when King Harald V opened it on 19 December 1991. Store norske leksikon gives the total construction cost as NOK 219 million, of which 30 percent was financed by tolls until they were lifted on 25 May 2007; the earlier answer of NOK 200 million came from the English Wikipedia lead.
