Hisingbron bridge is vertical-lift bridge in Gothenburg, on the western coast of Sweden. The bridge will be approximately 350m-long and will feature a central lift span, pylons with counterweights and sup port pillars. The four pylons have a height of 55 meters above the water surface. It will feature an Arpeggio-like superstructure with a central lifting span, supported by four steel owers/pylons, raised 30m above the water level.
