Amsterdam bridge

Amsterdam bridge, Steel bridge in Amsterdam-Oost, Netherlands.

Amsterdam Bridge is a steel structure in Amsterdam-Oost that links different parts of the city. It spans roughly 89 meters in length and about 19 meters wide, serving daily traffic from both cars and pedestrians.

The bridge opened in 1957 as part of Amsterdam's post-war rebuilding. It enabled the development of eastern neighborhoods and connected them to the rest of the city as the area expanded.

The structure represents mid-20th century Dutch engineering, demonstrating the Netherlands' expertise in water management and infrastructure development.

The bridge is equally accessible for cars and pedestrians, with clear driving lanes and separate paths. It is a main crossing point, so expect traffic during peak hours.

The structure functions as a primary crossing point for residents accessing IJburg, maintaining continuous traffic flow across Amsterdam's eastern waterways.
