Veluwemeer Aqueduct: Water Bridge From The Netherlands

Veluwemeer Aqueduct is a 25-meter long navigable aqueduct (also known as the water bridge) located over Veluwemeer lake in Harderwijk, Netherlands. It was opened in 2002 and bypasses the N302 road.

Architectural engineers have created some amazing structures in this world but the Veluwemeer Aqueduct in the Netherlands is truly one of the best. Most aqueducts are basically bridges that are built above water. But this Aqueduct is a bridge for the passing ships while those driving in cars go through a tunnel underneath the bridge. In other words, it is an underwater tunnel where the ships sail on the top and the cars travel underneath it. That way traffic jams can be avoided because cars no longer have to wait for boats to pass by anymore.
