Schellingwouderbrug, Steel bridge in Amsterdam-Noord, Netherlands

The Schellingwouderbrug stretches across the water, connecting Amsterdam-Noord to Zeeburgereiland with its steel structure and mechanical lifting system for boats.

The construction and opening of Schellingwouderbrug in 1957 established a vital transportation link between the northern districts and central Amsterdam.

Local maritime traffic and daily commuters intersect at this crossing point, reflecting the Dutch relationship with water management and urban mobility.

The bridge opens every 20 minutes during operational hours from 19:00 to 10:00, except during peak traffic times on weekdays.

Marine communication at Schellingwouderbrug occurs through VHF channel 18, while the bridge remains closed when wind speeds reach 7 on the Beaufort scale.
