Ketelbrug

The Ketelbrug is bridge spanning the Ketel-lake between the Noordoostpolder and the Eastern Flevopolder in the Dutch province of Flevoland. The motorway A6 runs over it.
A part of it is a Bascule bridge.

The 800-meter-long (2,600 ft) bridge was opened on 15 June 1970.

The Ketelbrug had a lot of accidents. One of those was when the warning lights didn't flash and the bridge went up. Ketelbrug had its warning lights replaced.[1][2]

From Ketelbrug you will be able to see Zwolse-Hoek (Urk), and Kamperhoek.
