The Twente Canal is shutting down to all boat traffic starting tomorrow, July 25th, indefinitely, as the government battles a crippling drought. Water levels must be maintained at 9.10 meters above NAP to prevent embankment collapse — and pumping just isn’t enough. That means no ships, no irrigation for farmers, and even sports clubs are affected. The same water bans are now in place in Gelderland near Nijmegen, where groundwater is at an all-time low. This is a stark, nationwide warning: structural safety of the canal comes before shipping and agriculture — and the drought is far from over.
