Sediment-Trap near Wedel

Introduction

The “Sediment Trap near Wedel”, built in 2008 downstream of the City of Hamburg, consists of an approximately 2 km long and 2 meters deep sag. North Sea sediments, which are transported in the upstream direction by the flood current, should be caught before they reach the Port of Hamburg.
