2002 Aquaduct Veluwemeer in Netherlands

The "water bridge" is three meters deep. [InterestingEngineering]

We have a similar one in Normandy
we have one of these on Marine Drive at Safety Beach in Melbourne Australia with the boats going over the road.
The fact that the foundations look like boats is probably lost because most people don't see it from above. But that is an elegant design when the shape and purpose collide.
[Some of the comments compared it to the Chesapeake Bay Bridge Tunnel.]
