BREMERHAVEN. In the course of the renovation of the Kaiserschleuse on the outer flood gate, which was completed a year ago, a lock gate has been converted to fit the new design. The success of the conversion has led to other gates being converted.

The work on the reserve gate was recently completed. The costs amounted to approximately €1.2m per gate.
