LED street lighting of the Tresfjord Bridge

The E16 Slomarka is a massive four-lane highway that runs through the municipalities of Southern Odal Kongsvinger, Norway. Tresfjordbrua is the bridge built in the Municipality of Møre Romsdal to reduce the distance between Ålesund and Åndalsnes. Characterized by a total length of 1,290 meters, it is considered the sixth-longest bridge in all of Norway. The LED street lighting of the Tresfjord Bridge was made with long-lasting performance luminaires that increased safety on the route by reducing energy costs for the Municipality and ensuring a better driving experience for travellers.

Improvement of traffic thanks to the new LED street lighting of the E136

The Tresfjord Bridge was opened on 24 October 2015 and its opening has significantly improved road safety. The flow of traffic is now smoother and the travel times of commuters who cross the bridge every day have been considerably reduced. In fact, the infrastructural intervention meant that the section became about 13 km shorter than the previous route and the driving time between Åndalsnes and Ålesund has been reduced by about 20 minutes. AEC’s intervention ensured road lighting solutions that guaranteed light uniformity throughout the bridge and a reduction in glare phenomena.

The objectives of the intervention

The intervention for the new LED road lighting of the Tresfjord bridge was a success in terms of reducing costs and improving the driving conditions of travellers.

More security

Greater safety for drivers thanks to a high light uniformity throughout the bridge that allows traffic to flow smoothly, reducing sudden braking and traffic jams.

Efficient luminaires

The solutions used for the LED street lighting of the Tresfjord bridge use less energy with greater performance for a significant reduction in energy costs.

Visual comfort

AEC’s specific optics for street lighting ensure a uniform distribution of the luminous flux throughout the road, reducing glare and the formation of shadow areas.
