    During this walking tour, you’ll find out all sorts of things about the Volkeraksluizen: the largest and busiest inland shipping sluice complex in Europe. You will walk past sluices and dams that have been installed as part of the Delta Plan to shield the hinterland from flooding and to facilitate smooth and safe shipping.

    The sluices are of major economic significance. If all of the freight that passes through the sluices by ship were transported over the roads, then there would be a definite gridlock in the south west of the Netherlands. The average cargo of a single ship is comparable to that of forty trucks, and some four hundred inland vessels pass by the sluices every day.

    De audiotour is verpuderd. De informatie die over de sluizen gegeven wordt, klopt wel, maar bij 4, wordt gezegd dat je met een trap omhoog moet gaan, zodat je over de brug kan lopen. De trap komt alleen op een vangrail uit, waar geen pad richting de brug ligt. Ook staat er een bord bij de straat waar we in moeten gaan om de trap op te lopen, dat de weg verboden is om in te gaan. De audio is verder wel goed en leuk om te beluisteren.
