April 2011 – The Netherlands Directorate-General for Public Works and Water Management has built a new motorway between the N34/N36 junction and the N48. The original N36 has been extended by nine kilometres for this ring road around Ommen. The route includes four viaducts, a bridge over the Ommerkanaal and a tunnel for cyclists and slow traffic at Witte Paal. The cycle path has been constructed at a higher level and fenced off to ensure the safety of the cyclists. The fencing was hot-dip galvanized by Verzinkerij Wolvega and the small fastening components were centrifugally galvanized by Centrizink Wolvega.
