Rotterdam touring again dismantling the bridge for Bezos yacht

Confusion over the dismantling of a historic bridge in Rotterdam for a luxury yacht by Amazon founder Jeff Bezos: According to media reports, the city of Rotterdam has not yet received a request for approval.

“I find the excitement very strange. No decision has been taken, not even a permit application has been received,” Rotterdam Mayor Ahmed Aboutaleb said Thursday.

A spokeswoman said earlier on Wednesday that city administration had responded positively to a request from the shipbuilder. He had asked if the Koningshavn Bridge could be dismantled so that the nearly 40-meter-high superyacht could go out to sea once it was built.

Mayor Ahmed Abu Talib does not want to hear about the dismantling of the bridge.

US billionaire Bezos has pledged to bear the costs of dismantling and rebuilding the bridge, a spokesman for the mayor of Rotterdam told AFP on Wednesday. The announcement caused severe criticism. (pal/sda/afp)
