Thanks — transport routes across rivers and lakes.
Description
The map reflects the variety of waterways types and that not all rivers or lakes are navigable for each type of ship.
The Netherlands as a trading nation depends on the transport of goods. An important part of this takes place via rivers, canals and lakes. These connect the North Sea with the rest of the Netherlands and the underlying Europe. The inland waterways make transport possible in a large-scale and relatively inexpensive way. Sailing routes are indicated on the inland waterways. The Netherlands has 6 200 km of waterways. Rijkswaterstaat supervises and supervises traffic on inland waterways.
The transport on the inland waterways depends on the proper functioning of the system, including lack or excess water. In times of drought, transport is adjusted as much as possible, switching to smaller ships. There may also be longer waiting times at some weirs.
There may be conflicts with other uses.
