It spans Borgarfjörður, linking Borgarnes to Route 1 (the Ring Road) and connecting it with other parts of the country. The bridge is 520 m long and was opened on 13 September 1981, with repairs carried out in 2012. Before its construction, the Ring Road crosses the Hvítá river upstream from its mouth at Borgarfjörður via the bridge at Ferjukot, which opened in 1928.
