Berendrecht lock

For the common access of both locks, the southern quay walls of the Zandvliet Lock were demolished and recycled, ultimately allowing about 80,000 m³ of rubble to be incorporated into the concrete to be manufactured for the new lock. This recycled concrete was applied as 'mass concrete' in certain segments of the retaining walls and at the approach to the access channel.
