How much did the Stolma Bridge in Austevoll, Norway cost to build?
The Stolma Bridge (Stolmabrua, Stolmasundet bru) in Austevoll, Vestland county, Norway, is a 467 m prestressed-concrete cantilever box-girder bridge between the islands of Stolmen and Selbj酶rn, whose 301 m main span was the world's longest box-girder span from its opening on 14 November 1998 until 2006.
