In order for ships to enter the new lock in the Port of Amsterdam in a safe way, Jasper Coremans, Project Coordinator of OpenIJ, explains that works are being conducted on the west side of the new lock to realise a proper approach channel.
In the southwest of the southern lock chamber wall of the new lock, the Port is building a ‘dividing wall’. This connects the new sea lock with the Middle Lock and serves as a flood defence and the future public road across the locks will be built on top of it.
