STORYLINE:
The Chinese-built Halogaland Bridge near Narvik, Norway's northern port city, has spurred local economic growth, especially benefiting the local fisheries and mining industries, and enhancing overall regional prosperity.

It offers an important shortcut for European route E6 - the main north-south road through Norway and the west coast of Sweden.
Data from BPS Nord, northern Norway's regional toll group, reveals the bridge's burgeoning significance.
In the past year alone, over 1.59 million vehicles crossed the Halogaland Bridge, 16 percent more than in 2021 and 35 percent m
