Delfzijl dike passages closed again due to high water levels
On Wednesday, February 2, shortly after midnight, we will be dealing with high tide at sea. Rijkswaterstaat predicts a water level of NAP +3.10m in Delfzijl around 12:10 a.m. This means that the dike passages (coupures) in Delfzijl will be closed.
We will start closing the road on Tuesday evening at 9 p.m. This will result in the temporary closure of the port of Delfzijl. Traffic will be diverted using signs. Once the water has receded sufficiently and the road is clear of water, the roads will be reopened. The closures in Delfzijl always take place when the expected sea level is NAP + 3m or higher. We carry out these closures in collaboration with our colleagues from the Hunze en Aa’s water board.
