{{Expand Dutch|topic=struct}}Image:Ketelbrug.JPG

The Ketelbrug is bridge spanning the Ketel-lake between the Noordoostpolder and the Eastern Flevopolder in the Dutch province of Flevoland. The motorway A6 runs over it.

A part of it is a Bascule bridge.

The {{convert|800|m|ft|adj=mid|-long|sp=us}} bridge was opened on 15 June 1970.

The Ketelbrug had a lot of accidents. One of those was when the warning lights didn't flash and the bridge went up. Ketelbrug had its warning lights replaced.[https://archive.today/20120530125148/http://www.onderzoeksraad.nl/index.php/pers/ketelbrug-ongewild-en-ongecontroleerd-geopend/ KETELBRUG ONGEWILD EN ONGECONTROLEERD GEOPEND][https://www.computable.nl/2011/04/21/onderzoeksraad-ketelbrug-was-onveilig/ Onderzoeksraad: Ketelbrug was onveilig]

From Ketelbrug you will be able to see Zwolse-Hoek (Urk), and Kamperhoek.
