Did that bridge have to be designed to withstand the additional weight of ship and barge traffic,tvb now,tvbnow,bttvb2 M# o, t/ e0 I3 J4 E$ b/ {; j

The Incredible Magdeburg Water Bridge in Germany$ s9 M, P2 d# S% k
The Magdeburg Water Bridge is a navigable aqueduct in Germany that connects the Elbe-Havel Canal to the Mittelland Canal and allows ships to cross over the Elbe River. At 918 meters, it is the longest navigable aqueduct in the world.
% o- e' A( K* o. u, Y公仔箱論壇The Elbe-Havel and Mittelland canals had previously met near Magdeburg but on opposite sides of the Elbe Ships moving between the two had to make a 12-kilometer detour, descending from the Mittelland Canal through the Rothensee boat lift into the Elbe, then sailing downstream on the river, before entering the Elbe-Havel Canal through Niegripp lock. Low water levels in the Elbe often prevented fully laden canal barges from making this crossing, requiring time-consuming off-loading of cargo. ; V0 M6 U* N5 d% E

The aqueduct was finally completed and opened to the public in 2003. 公仔箱論壇/ m+ U, {9 ^$ ?4 _) i
