The Melkwegbrug is both an arch and swing bridge in Purmerend over the Noordhollandsch Kanaal. The bridge is intended for cyclists and pedestrians. .
The bridge is located near the location of the former Amsterdamse Poort in the extension of the historical connection between Amsterdam and Purmerend, which was popularly called the "Milky Way", hence the name "Milky Way Bridge"
