The Slauerhoffbrug is a fully automatic bascule bridge in the city of Leeuwarden in the Netherlands. It is a road bridge that carries the Slauerhoffweg over the Harlingervaart. It was completed in 2000. The bridge uses two arms to swing a section of road in and out of place. The deck is 15 m by 15 m. It is painted in yellow and blue, representative of Leeuwarden's flag and seal. This movable bridge is also known as the “Slauerhoffbrug ‘Flying’ Drawbridge”. One of the main designers is Emile Asari. A tail bridge can quickly and efficiently be raised and lowered from one pylon . This quickly allows water traffic to pass while only briefly blocking road traffic.
