About this equipment

 
- ALSO PROFILE DREDGER Project "Zuidelijke Randwag Rotterdam, executed by Jac G van Oord Utrecht, now Van Oord Rotterdam. CZ Westerwolde leaving the site near Rotterdam/Pernis 1965. Job: for soil improvement at so called "STER" connection (A4 from Beneluxtunnel south to A15 Highway) the pit was excavated with dredger and later filled up with sand. Now today this point is one of the most bussiest highway connections in the Netherlands. The dredger was transported by truck and lorries to the harbour for further watertransport, through the company Stoof from Breda, later Van Seumeren- De Meern and now Mammoet Rotterdam. After this project, the dredger was used again by Van Oord on the Schelde Rijn Kanaal to construct a workharbourbassin. (information by Frits Visscher)
