Water engineering works – Improving water inflow to Noordervaart

Summary

The tender concerns water engineering works to improve water supply around Sluis 15. The project aims to create a robust and future-proof water management system that increases water supply towards both the Noordervaart and the Zuid-Willemsvaart. The contract is to be carried out in two phases: a construction team phase for joint design development and preparation of execution, followed by a realisation phase. The works mainly involve replacing outdated and worn structures, increasing discharge capacity under free flow, and implementing measures for additional water inflow. For the Noordervaart, this includes adjustments and major maintenance to combat drought in the Peel region. For the Zuid-Willemsvaart, the project includes a bypass along Sluis 15 with a control structure for water level management.
