Temse Bridge

Bornem, Italy

Temse Bridge

The Temse Bridge crosses the Scheldt at Temse, a small town approximately 25 km (15 miles) southwest of Antwerp. Between 1955 and 2009 the 365 m (1,197.5 ft) bridge was the longest in Belgium. The old bridge lost that distinction to the New Schelde Bridge which runs parallel to it, and has a length

of 374 m (1,227.0 ft). Temse marks the last bridge crossing over the Scheldt before the river reaches the sea. Road crossings downstream of this point use tunnels.
