Room for the River
In addition to this new contract Boskalis is already involved in several other major hydraulic engineering projects in the context of the government's Room for the River program. These include the Veessen-Wapenveld high-water channel, the Lower Rhine project, the Deventer project, where a total of six secondary channels of the IJssel river are being dug, and the Noordwaard project near the town of Gorinchem. Boskalis' strategy is aimed at benefitting from key macro-economic factors which drive worldwide demand in our markets: expansion of the global economy, increase in energy consumption, global population growth and the challenges that go hand in hand with climate change. This project is largely driven by climate change. For further information Investor relations:Martijn L.D. Schuttevâer
