Ongoing commitment to dyke reinforcement
The work on the dyke reinforcement is carried out by IJsselwerken, but it has a significant impact on the municipality and its residents. That is why we are investing in attention, time and money for the dyke reinforcement. Our executive board has decided to reserve approximately €343,000 annually until 2033 for the deployment of manpower and funding for this purpose. The council will soon take a decision on this.
We are working closely with IJsselwerken to ensure that the dyke work is carried out with as little inconvenience as possible and results in a safer, greener and more attractive outcome. Alderman Hans Olthof: “The dyke reinforcement causes a lot of disruption, but it also offers opportunities. It is important that the municipality recognises these opportunities and capitalises on them. That is why the executive board has decided to invest structurally in this, so that we can turn the dyke reinforcement to our advantage by realising co-benefits and synergy opportunities.”
