Vegsund

We are now passing Vegsund and the distinctive Vegsund Bridge, which connects the island of Uksenøya to the mainland and the rest of Sula Municipality. The bridge opened in 1972 and has since been a vital part of the road network between Ålesund and the areas to the south and east. Vegsundet is a narrow and lively strait, with boat traffic and scenic views of both fjords and mountains. The area around Vegsund has developed from farmland and small shops into a residential zone, offering a balance between city access and natural surroundings. It’s also conveniently located near the Veibust business district and the E39 highway, making it attractive for both commuters and businesses. Vegsund is a great example of how small straits and bridges help connect the island communities of Sunnmøre.
