, Germany, North Rhine-Westphalia, Dinslaken - Construction site Emschermuendung into the Rhine. New Emscher dike in the construction area of the new Emscher estuary. The Emscher river mouth into the Rhine is being moved from Dinslaken almost 500 meters north to Voerde. Fish will then be able to swim barrier-free up the new Emscher from the Rhine through a newly created floodplain. The Emscher has been completely free of wastewater since January 2022 following the construction of a parallel sewer. The river was previously an open, above-ground combined sewer with rainwater and wastewater. On the right, the old Emscher. On the left, the new Emscher main channel. Flood protection through wide outlet areas in the new river delta.
