A2 Highway Everdingen-Empel

2002

The Diefdijk, part of the New Holland’s Waterline, serves as a high water barrier that closes the A2 highway during floods. Designed within strict structural parameters, it also acts as a recognisable feature along the A2. The overpass features rounded edge detailing with an embossed migratory bird pattern, linking it visually to other highway elements.
