The main goal of the project is to optimize the fairway, so the vessels can maneuver safely in the port areas.

In total, approximately 40,000 m3 of dredged material will be removed.

The dredging work, undertaken with the crane vessel Rival, will be carried out in two phases: the material will be removed first and than transported to spreading sections in the Western Scheldt.

According to De Boer, the dredged material will be transported by hopper barges to the Hollands Diep dredging depot, where it will be processed further.
