Can Military Trucks Cross the Merwede Bridge A27?
Rijkswaterstaat has not clarified if military trucks are exempt from the two-month prohibition on heavy vehicles crossing the weakened Merwede Bridge (A27). Since July 18, all trucks over 3.5 tons have been banned due to structural steel concerns, with exceptions for buses and emergency services. Enforcement actions include fines for Dutch drivers and special operations targeting foreign trucks to maintain regional accessibility despite the ongoing closure.
