The Yellow Bridge

This Yellow Bridge called "Gele Klap" is a vertical-lift bridge in Stadskanaal. The name Klap refers to the Dutch word 'klapbrug' or 'drawbridge', after the old wooden drawbridge that was here before 1867.

I'm linking to Weekend Reflections.

  1. Grappig dat zo'n brug meteen de maximum hoogte van een passerende boot bepaald. Wel een leuk gezicht ipv dat standaard machine groen of grijs

  7. I presume that it's so brightly painted to avoid collisions in foggy weather. There should be more yellow in the world!

  9. A cheerful color, since the skies in Holland are often grey! When did they paint it yellow? Was in Stadskanaal in 2013, but I can't remember seeing a yellow bridge. Wishing you a lovely Sunday! Hope to see you back at All Seasons:)

    The yellow colour stands out very well against the grey sky!
