Hartaansilta, Oulu

We have built a new pedestrian and cycling bridge in Oulu that will enable a more diverse use of the river estuary and the area's recreational routes, and improve the everyday movement of the area's residents. The bridge will be a visually striking, double-span steel arch bridge connecting the Lipporanta and Vaakunakylä districts. The bridge is 170 meters long.

The bridge was selected in a design competition with a competition entry called Siivenkantama. The bridge is also part of the Oulu 2025 housing fair area. 

Oulu's new landmark

The bridge will transform the urban environment of Oulu, offering places to stop and observe marine nature, and facilitating the everyday movement of city residents between the Hietasaari and Tuira districts. The bridge will create a light, bird-like figure in the Oulu river estuary landscape as a characteristic of the new residential area of Hartaanselänranta.

The project will involve street and landscaping work, concreting work, supported trenches, anchoring work, and piling. The useful width of the bridge is 4.5 m. It will be illuminated with special lighting. The Hartaansaari boat lane passes under it. Work started in 2023, and the bridge was completed in the summer of 2025.
