Sandnessundet Bru Lighthouse

Also known as: Sandnessundet Bru (Sandnessund Bridge)

This 7-meter concrete post serves as a navigational aid on the west pier of the Sandnessund Bridge near Tromsø. Painted white, it features a lantern and gallery, with the lantern roof finished in red. The light emits a white, red, or green signal on a 6-second cycle, changing color based on the vessel's approach. This light has been operational for an unspecified period, guiding mariners through the waters under the bridge. The site is accessible to the public, though the tower itself is closed.

Why it matters: The Sandnessundet Bru light warns vessels of the west pier of the Sandnessund Bridge, enabling safe passage under the structure by indicating proper positioning through its directional colored light.
