| Video Discription | The Maeslantkering is the Delta Work with the largest moving sections anywhere in the world. This fully automated storm surge barrier protects the densely populated area between The Hague, Utrecht, Rotterdam and Dordrecht against high tides from the North Sea. When closure is initiated, the doors close and fill up with water, causing them to sink down. This timelapse shows the test closure, which takes 2.5 hours in real-time! #Maeslantkering #Rijkswaterstaat #waterworks Interested in the Delta Works?
