Dermed er det slutt på ferjene som har forbundet Bømlo med Stord og Bømlo med Valevåg og Haugalandet. For nå kan folk kjøre "tørrskodd" gjennom et anlegg som både knytter 2 naboøysamfunn sammen, men og gir fastlandsforbindelse til øykommunene Stord og Bømlo. 1.650.000 arbeidstimer er nedlagt i de 3 hovedelementene i sambandet, Bømlafjordtunellen, Bømlabroen og Stordbroen. Tilsammen har de kostet over 1.2 milliarder kroner å bygge.
