When a flood-risk area road is built on embankments, a bank has to be created in order to be above the water level in case of flood.During a flood, this change of landscape has a major impact on the hydraulic system, and increases the flood's extent in that particular area. When embankment is not an option, one frequently resorts to artwork, which often stands for huge costs.
In addition to its economic relevance, building a floating road enables unhindered water flow. Its construction does not interfere with the area's hydraulic system, so it is possible to cross the floods' expansion fields without affecting the area.
The road is made up of 25 m long sections, that are linked by junctions.
Each section is made up of three layers:
* Coating
* Concrete and iron
* Floats
The linking bridge joins the floating road to the embankment road.
The road's anti-drift system is managed by central streetlights.

Recreation island in the Hout-habour, Amsterdam
In the Amsterdam Hout-harbour the municipality has planned to dredge 8 residential islands. On these islands 950 houses will be built and mooring facilities will be created for 70 residential floating houses. The careful use of space results in innovative building. FDN has been involved in creating a recreational island in the harbour and also a floating road from the island to the existing constant pier for tankers. The floating road is designed using concrete pontoons filled with polystyrene.
