Van ponton tot dijkredder: noodmaatregelen die écht snel werken

from Waterbouwdag Community podcast

In deze podcast spreekt Gerrit Heijkoop met Danny Janssen, docent/onderzoeker aan de Nederlandse Defensie Academie en de Hogeschool Zeeland (HZ). Janssen onderzocht de BRES Defender: een aangepast militair ponton (bekend van pontonbruggen) dat je razendsnel over de weg kunt aanvoeren, te water laat, en vóór een beginnende bres manoeuvreert – een soort mobiele, lokale dijkophoging. Het idee is geïnspireerd op 1953, toen schepen in een bres werden gevaren om het achterland te sparen.Janssen plaatst die oplossing in de bredere noodmaatregelen-toolkit: van klassieke zandzakken (arbeidsintensief, laag) en big bags tot mobiele keringen met stutten. Cruciaal is de tijdsfactor: in een echte crisis beslist de dijkgraaf met zijn team, maar succes valt of staat met vooraf nadenken over scenario’s, logistiek, opslaglocaties en geoefende teams. Juist daarom scoort de BRES Defender op mobiliteit en snelheid—niet omdat het ponton per se heilig is, maar omdat het concept (sterke kern + flexibel zeil, snel inzetbaar) het verschil kan maken.Tot slot wijst Janssen op nieuwe kwetsbaarheden: naast hoogwater en mogelijke sabotage verzwakken ook gravende dieren (bevers, dassen, vossen) dijken lokaal. Zijn “bagger idee” voor de sector: versnipperd beheer van noodmiddelen. Oproep: organiseer dit meer nationaal en gezamenlijk tussen waterschappen—zodat middelen, kennis en inzet écht daar belanden waar het mis dreigt te gaan.
