One with the Market

The most recent edition 2025 of the business online magazine Rijkswaterstaat& is live. In this edition, you can read how Rijkswaterstaat and the contractor tackled the setbacks at the widening of the Julianakanaal . By thinking and working outside the box, Rijkswaterstaat and contractor Van den Herik completed the project in record time. An approach based on trust. We spoke with young infra professionals about their views on the infrastructure sector with all its challenges, innovations, and major tasks. We also pay attention to the 12.5-year anniversary of the LTS (National Tunnel Standard) and how it contributes to the optimal functioning of tunnels, allowing road users to drive smoothly and safely.

Additionally, there are articles about the strategy development at Rijkswaterstaat as well as at a market party . One is a large implementation organization of the State, the other is a Dutch company that is an international player in the field of Geo-data. Both are involved in strategy development. But how and for what purpose? We also reflect on the sustainability of the fairway maintenance  in Eastern Netherlands and how trust, innovation, and a sustainability compensation played a role in this. Finally, an article about the Support Point Market Consultation  and the role they have in good cooperation and communication with the market and what that yields.
