Écluse de Suresnes, River lock and dam complex in Suresnes, France.
The Suresnes lock system consists of three locks and two dams stretching 185 meters in length, 18 meters in width, and 5 meters in depth.
The first structure, built in 1869 following Baron Haussmann's initiative, underwent major reconstructions in 1880 and 1933 to improve Seine River navigation.
The lock system serves as a central point for river transportation, connecting Paris to outer regions and facilitating both commercial and passenger vessel traffic.
Operating 359 days per year with 21,000 annual passages, this lock system manages water levels within 7 centimeters to ensure safe vessel navigation.
The facility processes over 6.3 million tons of cargo annually, equivalent to removing 320,000 trucks from regional roadways.
