The Vasco da Gama Bridge in Portugal is the longest bridge in Europe (including viaducts) and 9th longest in the world. It has a total length of 17.2 km (10.7 miles), including 0.829 km (0.5 miles) for the main bridge, 11.5 km (7.1 miles) in viaducts, and 4.8 km (3.0 mi) in dedicated access roads. It is a cable-stayed bridge flanked by viaducts and roads that spans the Tagus River near Lisbon. Its purpose was to alleviate the congestion on Lisbon's other bridge (25 de Abril Bridge) and to join the previously unconnected motorways radiating from the Portuguese capital. The bridge was opened to traffic on March 29 1998, 18 months after construction began and just in time for Expo 98. The Øresund or Öresund Bridge is the longest combined road and rail bridge in Europe. It is a combined two-track rail and four-lane road bridge-tunnel across the Öresund strait and connects the Danish capital of Copenhagen and the Swedish city of Malmö. The international European route E20 runs across the bridge and through the tunnel via the two lane motorway, as does the Öresund Railway Line. Construction began in 1995. The last section was constructed on 14 August 1999. The official inauguration took place on 1 July 2000, with the bridge opening for traffic later that day.
