Weyts pokes first spade for New Lock with Dutch colleague

“The realisation of the New Terneuzen Lock is one of the priorities in the Flemish coalition agreement to ensure the accessibility of the Flemish seaports,” Ben Weyts said. “By 2030, we expect significant growth in freight transport. Transporting all that extra freight by road is not an option. Hence we are investing heavily in alternatives such as our waterways.”
