Buda Bridge, Vertical-lift bridge in Neder-Over-Heembeek, Belgium.
The Buda Bridge spans the Brussels-Scheldt Maritime Canal with a length of 41.4 meters and a width of 13.5 meters at its location in Brussels.
The original bascule bridge from 1931 was destroyed during World War II by British forces, leading to the construction of the current structure in 1955.
The bridge name refers to a 17th-century farm and tavern that commemorated the liberation of Buda, Hungary, from Ottoman control in 1686.
Following damage from a cargo ship collision in December 2022, the bridge underwent extensive repairs scheduled for completion in June 2024.
The bridge mechanism allows vessels up to 35 meters in height to pass underneath when raised while maintaining regular traffic flow when lowered.
