Strange "jetbridge" at AAR

Hope this is the right forum.

I came through AAR earlier this week on a domestic connect flight for CPH and noticed some strange ground-level "jetbridges". They were not in use with the Q400 but were collapsed alongside the terminal building. I have never seen anything like those! How are they operated, and how are they elevated to reach the door of the aircraft? They only seemed able to swing to the right away from the terminal and onto the apron but since most (all?) aircrafts are boarded from the leftside how does that work?
The only picture I could find of this strange construction is on the airport website.
