The 800-meter-long (2,600 ft) bridge was opened on 15 June 1970.


The Ketelbrug had a lot of accidents. One of those was when the warning lights didn’t flash and the bridge went up. Ketelbrug had its warning lights replaced. From Ketelbrug you will be able to see Zwolse-Hoek (Urk), and Kamperhoek.
