New construction of the Heegermühler lock in Eberswalde, Germany

Welcome to Eberswalde (Germany) at the Heegermüller Lock on the Finow Canal – the oldest still navigable artificial waterway in Germany, a site currently undergoing major reconstruction to enhance its functionality and resilience. As part of this ambitious project, the lower outer harbor had to be backfilled to address space limitations.

To ensure the structural stability of the embankment and mitigate erosion risks, the innovative AquaRockBag® system has been employed by Eurovia. This solution provides a sustainable and effective method for securing the backfill while maintaining environmental integrity.

Join us as we take a closer look at this critical infrastructure upgrade and the advanced techniques used to protect it for the future.
