The Royers Lock is an important shipping connection between the Scheldt and the Albert Canal. The lock is very important for the Port of Antwerp, one of the largest and busiest ports in Europe. The Royers Lock was opened in 1907. At the time, it was an important technological feat, designed to support the growing shipping activities in the Port of Antwerp. Over the years, the Royers Lock has been modernized and enlarged several times to accommodate larger ships and greater capacity.
For the continued growth and efficiency of the Port of Antwerp, the lock will be thoroughly renovated in the coming years. Work started in October 2021 and will take several years. The lock will be expanded into a high-performance barge lock that will handle modern barges smoothly and safely. It will be considerably longer (from 180 to 235 meters in length) and wider (from 22 to 36 meters) so that it can lock larger barges efficiently and increase the transport volume to the Albert Canal.
Two cameras were installed to provide an overview image and view into the work site area. One of the cameras was mounted to a protected building in the harbor and will be removed after the completion of the works without any damage.
The Flemish Government wants to involve the public in the work with up-to-date visual material. Thus, on the project website you can not only view a monthly timelapse, but also open a livestream. This way you can watch the progress as if you were there yourself, without getting your shoes dirty! The C-SITE camera footage will also be played live on large screens in the visitor center near the Port House. Take a look at the site of the Flemish Government or drop by the visitor center.

"Monitoring the progress of several construction sites simultaneously, recording specific milestones and promoting individual projects among internal and external stakeholders, that is the added value that C-site offers you on a daily basis in a systematic and structured way with maximum flexibility!"
"With C-SITE we have a clear overview of our various logistics construction projects in Europe. The web application is easy to use and allows us to communicate with colleagues in other countries in a simple way. The photos and timelapses are of high quality, so we can also use the images to support our marketing."
We enjoyed the course of the project in Ertvelde and are happy with the result. We liked your organization, the platform and the hardware used. We are happy customers.
"The timelapse videos we obtain from our construction sites through C-Site are a great added value in our communication to external parties and especially to our clients. They appreciate being able to closely follow the construction of their new home. The flexible online tool is also very user-friendly."
