Rainwater will be carried away towards the Ghent-Terneuzen Canal. To make this possible, a new sewer with a diameter of between 800 and 1600 mm is being laid. Some of the pipes are being installed using pipe jacking with a closed shield, while others are being laid in an open trench. The pipe jacking is being performed over a total length of 1350 metres at an average depth of 6 metres.
