The characteristic iron half-timbered arch bridge was built at Werkspoor from 1910 to 1912 for the Delft-Schipluiden-Maassluis tram connection. The bridge was built on the Werkspoor site so that the management of the WSM could inspect and approve it.
Construction period: 1910-1912
Location: Schipluiden
Monumental status: National Monument
Spans: Vlaardingervaart

We had a discussion about this: the bridge is only suitable for single track. Logically, two steam trams at the same time are too heavy, and so often they do not meet in opposite directions. But was the entire route single track? Or were there switches before and after the bridge? Or was there a winding track, as it still is today in the Leidsestraat in A'dam?
