BlazoN: På grøn grunn ei gull kvelvingsbru med tindar. In English: Vert an arched embattled bridge or.
Approved by the royal resolution of 19 June 1987 after a drawing by Jarle Skuseth. [c2j88]
The design is explained on the municipal web site. It represents the Skodje bridge - the Straumsbrua, at its time the largest stone bridge in Northern Europe , finished in 1922. It is since 2004 no longer used for car trafic. A new similar lookin g bridge was constructed in vicinity - making spectacular view from one bridge to another.
