The Green River Well area development is part of the Netherlands’ Flood Protection Program (HWBP) and focuses on the sustainable protection of the surrounding communities.
The current dykes are not high and strong enough to safely accommodate future water levels, necessitating reinforcement and relocation.
Under the project, Van Oord will use its expertise in water safety and dyke reinforcement to restore historic river courses, strengthen flood defenses, adapt infrastructure for better flow and thus increase flood safety in the area.
Outdoor work will start in 2027 and is expected to be completed in 2029.
