Randklev Bridge is a railway bridge on the Dovre Line over Gudbrandsdalslågen in Ringebu Municipality in Innlandet county, Norway.

The railway bridge was opened in 1957. It replaced a bridge next to it built 1896, considered too weak for increasing train weights and too low for electrification, which after 1957 is a narrow road bridge, still remaining as it was then. It is one of four railway bridges over this river.

Collapse in 2023
