Summary
A Dutch construction giant’s CEO is warning that the Netherlands’ economy could collapse if the government doesn’t urgently invest in crumbling infrastructure—costing twice as much to fix later and crippling supply chains. With bridges like the Merwedebrug already closed to freight and roads crumbling under heavier vehicles—including electric cars—the country’s lagging investments are backfiring. He’s calling for better coordination between authorities and builders, and insists key bridges like the Maasbrug and Waalbrug must be widened to ease crippling traffic jams—despite the tax burden, he admits it’s a necessary sacrifice.
