Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania: Sand from the Timmendorf harbor entrance for the Boltenhagen beach

Lübeck (dpa/mv) - The silted-up access to the port of Timmendorf on Poel is free again and can be used without restriction by the pilot boat stationed there. The dredging work to restore the required depth of the fairway, which has been ongoing since mid-June, has been completed, the Baltic Sea Waterways and Shipping Office announced on Thursday in Lübeck. The port entrance keeps silting up due to natural processes. The sand that accumulates during the dredging will be deposited in the sea in front of the Baltic Sea resort of Boltenhagen. There he uses the stability of the bathing beach.
