The locks were constructed simultaneously with the construction of the Afsluitdijk, almost 100 years ago. Due to the rising sea level, the dike will have to be raised and reinforced in the coming period. In order to discharge more water from the IJsselmeer to the Wadden Sea, extra discharge sluices are being built. There will also be a large pumping station, which will be used if insufficient water can be drained away by flushing.
