The Eastern Scheldt Storm Surge Barrier - The Netherlands

Drone photo of Neeltje Jans, a work island that is part of the Oosterscheldekering on February 21, 2024 in The Netherlands. The Eastern Scheldt storm surge barrier, known as the Oosterscheldekering in Dutch, stretches between the islands of Schouwen-Duiveland and Noord-Beveland. It holds the distinction of being the largest component of the Delta Works, a comprehensive system of dams and storm surge barriers crafted to shield the Netherlands from North Sea flooding. Initiated in response to the catastrophic North Sea flood of 1953, the Delta Works stand as a testament to the nation's commitment to flood prevention and protection. The province of Zeeland is largely located at or below sea level. In 1953, the dikes were bad and low. The chance of a flood then was once every 80 years. Thanks to the storm surge barrier, that chance is now less than once every 4,000 years. Photo by Robin Utrecht/ABACAPRESS.COM
