The Lippe Bridge over the Dortmund Ems Canal was an old steel trough, which was replaced in the course of the canal widening by two new. In 2005, during the construction of the first new steel trough next to the still existing old trough, there was a leak in the canal. The channel was leaked at this point in the lip and only the gates in Datteln and Lüdinghausen prevented the complete emptying. In 2017 the road under the canal was cleared again.

Canal underpass with graffiti

Highlight • Bridge

Not always nice, but under a bridge, it does not bother.

The complete crossing of the former military training area is only recently possible and a good supplement for new route planning in the area owners and reservoirs.

Shortly after the Dortmund-Ems canal underpass you have a great view of the Stever and a dead arm. In two of the pictures you can see a ship on the canal.
