The raft bridge in Koedijk

betekenis & definitie

Over the Noordhollands Kanaal (at Helderseweg 85a) there is a abutment on both sides, under which the raft sections can be drawn at the opening. The original wooden raft bridge (1820-'21) is still the most original of the originally sixteen raft bridges of the canal. However, the raft parts have been replaced by pontoons and the whole is now electrically powered.
