Boskalis announces the completion of the dredging works for the new inland harbor for fifty inland vessels along the Upper Rhine near Spijk in the Netherlands. For this we dredged 2.3 million cubic meters of sand, including with an electric suction dredger and crane barges. Unique to the project is not only the use of electric equipment, but also the fact that much of the dredged sand was reused on other Boskalis projects in the Netherlands such as the reinforcement of the Markermeer dikes and the land reclamation in the Rijnhaven in Rotterdam.
