About

The Nettelhorsterbrug is a bridge being built by the Royal BAM Group over the Twentekanaal as part of provincial road N346 in Lochem, the Netherlands. The bridge's name pays homage to the nearby hamlet Nettelhorst, chosen through an electoral process. On 21 February 2024 at 11:00 am Central European Time (UTC+1), a segment of the Nettelhorsterbrug under construction collapsed, resulting in two fatalities and two to five injuries.
