Not sure why exactly this aquaduct is article-worthy or even on HN. In The Netherlands we have plenty of aqueducts, the first modern one is the Ringvaart Haarlemmermeer one [1], built in 1961.

- bouke 5y agoI believe the interesting bit is its short length. Usually an aqueduct is part of a river or canal, but in this case it is connecting a lake on either side. Edit, then there’s also the new Aquaduct Vechtzicht, recently build and at 65m it is the widest aquaduct of Europe. https://nl.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aquaduct_Vechtzicht https://nl.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aquaduct_Vechtzicht
