Magdeburg Water Bridge - 馬格德堡水橋

The Magdeburg Water Bridge (German: Kanalbrücke Magdeburg) is a large navigable
aqueduct in central Germany, located near Magdeburg. The largest canal underbridge in Europe,
it spans the river Elbe and directly connects the Mittellandkanal to the west and Elbe-Havel Canal
to the east of the river, allowing large commercial ships to pass between the Rhineland and Berlin
without having to descend into and then climb out of the Elbe itself.
馬格德堡水橋（德語：Kanalbrücke Magdeburg）是一座在德國中部的大型的通
航渡槽，位於馬德格堡附近。馬格德堡水橋是歐洲最大的一座運河橋，它跨越易
北河接漢諾威再連接到西部的哈維爾運河河以東，使大型的商業船隻能夠輕易地
往返萊茵蘭和柏林，而不必再駛入易北河。

Planning for the canal crossing dates back to at least the beginning of the 20th century.
Work on the Mittellandkanal began in 1905, while work on the overall project continued
until 1942, when all construction was brought to a halt because of World War II. After
the war, the government of East Germany did not resume work on the project because
east-west trade was no longer important in the context of the Cold War.
規劃橫跨交叉運河的歷史可追朔到20世紀，在德國漢諾威的工程始於1905年，
整個工程的施工持續到1942年，當第二次世界大戰發生時，整項工程被迫停止
，戰爭結束後，因為當時的冷戰，東西貿易已不再重要的情況下，東德政府並
沒有馬上恢復施工。

After the reunification of Germany, the reestablishment of major water transport routes
made the water bridge a priority again. Work started in 1997, with construction taking six
years and costing €501 million. The water bridge now connects Berlin’s inland harbour
network with the ports along the Rhine River. The aqueduct's tough structure incorporates
24,000tonnes of steel and 68,000 cubic meters of concrete.
東西德統一之後，水上運輸的建設工程才又被重視，馬格德堡水橋的工程於
1997年重新開始建造，經過六年的建設之後，耗資了5.01億歐元。馬格德堡
水橋沿著萊茵河，連接柏林內陸的港口，形成水上交通網。水橋渡槽的建造
使用了強硬的結構，採用24,000噸的鋼材與68,000立方米的混凝土。
