At this time it was open to underwater boats.

Instead of designing a bridge that is much taller than the water surface for boats to pass below, Dutch engineers designed a unique bridge that can rotate 90 degrees.

Accordingly, large boats with a height and mast of more than 6 meters above sea level are forced to wait until the rotating bridge can pass.

It was as if there was some magic hand controlling the bridge.

However, not every ship or boat has to go back and forth, the bridge is open and must have a clear schedule. Specifically, the bridge management board will open bridges for boats and ships to travel back and forth at fixed hours on weekdays and weekends. The bridge opening time must avoid the peak on the road so as not to traffic jams. When a green signal is issued, the driver is allowed to pass through.

The Kornwerderzand Bridge deserves to be ranked among the most impressive and unique bridges in the world. Every year, many curious tourists come to see for themselves this "1-0-2" bridge.
