This should ensure that the swing bridge experiences fewer breakdowns. To facilitate the adjustment, the opening and closing of the swing bridge will be tested that day. Road traffic should take into account delays at the bridge due to the tests.

Recently, Vlotbrug t Zand has been struggling with breakdowns caused by the bridge not locking properly when closing and not unlocking properly when opening the swing bridge. Therefore, on April 22, a software adjustment will be implemented. It is necessary to test the bridge by opening and closing it multiple times. The testing will take place between 11:00 AM and 4:00 PM. Traffic should take into account delays at the bridge. The province has deployed traffic controllers to manage the traffic effectively.
