The Berlagebrug over the Amstel experienced a malfunction this afternoon, remaining open for approximately two hours and disrupting service for tram 12 and bus 62, which were rerouted. The exact cause of the defect is currently unknown, though a spokesperson for the municipality suggested a potential issue with the bridge's operation. Service was reportedly restored around 5:00 PM. Unlike a previous incident in 2024 where pedestrians and cyclists bypassed barriers during a malfunction, this complete opening prevented passage. The article also briefly mentions unrelated topics including a legal ruling, a police video, planned renovations at several Amsterdam locations, and a suspect's image being released.
