In the centre of Antwerp to get with the car and parking is not a cheap affair. In addition, a large part of the city centre car-free. The solution according to four entrepreneurs from Belgium and the Netherlands: aim your car in the Scheldt!

The entrepreneurs with roots in the shipbuilding industry and inland navigation want according to the GVA a floating car park in the river by the Belgium town: Antwerp Floating Park Pontoon. This pontoon has four floors, is 12 metres high, 150 metres long and 40 metres wide. The 6,000-ton colossus, with piles to the quay is confirmed, it must also be seaworthy, so the waves on the river Scheldt will it probably survive.

The entrepreneurs pitching the idea to the Antwerp city council by stating that this is the solution to the anticipated parking problems during the reconstruction of the scheldt quays. They say the floating car park with capacity for 1,000 cars in 16 months time to achieve them, for a fee of 10 million euros.

Or that a good deal is, that we don’t know, but it seems to us the ideal setup to in one fell swoop a 1,000 car to steal. In the small hours of the night as the pontoon disconnect and hop, you can see the Scheldt river down south with the loot. Can someone Michael Bay just inform about this filmplot?
