Provincial road N325, Arnhem, Netherlands Live Cam

The Pleyweg is the stretch of the N325 running into Arnhem from the motorway, in the east of the Netherlands. The webcam looks along the carriageways from a gantry above them.

The road leads to the John Frost Bridge over the Rhine, the objective of the airborne landings of September 1944 that the ground advance failed to reach in time. The bridge was destroyed a month later and rebuilt afterwards on the old piers.

Arnhem was fought over and then emptied of its population for the winter that followed, and the centre was rebuilt from very little. The road in the picture carries the traffic between that centre and the A12 towards Germany.
