Why Does the Øresund Bridge Close?

Full closures are rare - the bridge is open approximately 99.7% of the year.

Weather-Related Closures

High winds (>25 m/s) are the most common cause.

The bridge closes to all traffic when wind speeds exceed 25 m/s. Wind-sensitive vehicles (trailers, caravans) are banned between 15-25 m/s. Winter ice falling from cables occasionally causes closures.

Key Fact: Check the forecast before driving with a caravan.

Accident-Related Closures

Traffic accidents may block lanes temporarily.

Most accidents are cleared within 1-2 hours. Emergency services use the hard shoulder to reach the accident site quickly.

Tip: Sign up for our SMS alerts to get notifications.

Maintenance Closures

Scheduled work, usually at night.

Maintenance closures are announced weeks in advance and typically occur between 23:00 and 05:00 to minimise disruption.
