This is our reason, and insurance, for our living in this area. The main sea dike. Our protection against the sea, weather and water.
You sure understand we pay a lot of taxes to maintain, and keep it up to highest savety levels, for this contructions.

Super to see this key defence from the sea - it is so important that such flood defences are well maintained, and it is good to hear that is being done.
