Julianasluis, Navigation lock in Gouda, Netherlands

The Julianasluis lock connects the Hollandsche IJssel and Gouwe waterways with a length of 115 meters and a threshold depth of 4.4 meters.

Built between 1932 and 1936, the lock features roller doors and operates with two paddles per gate using ADE electro-mechanical actuators for water control.

This Rijksmonument exemplifies the Dutch engineering expertise in water management through its mechanical systems and architectural elements that define regional navigation.

The lock operates from 5:00 AM to 11:59 PM on weekdays, with modified hours during weekends, and communicates through VHF Channel 18 for vessel passage.

The structure maintains CEMT class IV classification, accommodating medium-sized vessels with equipment capable of producing 47.5 kN maximum tractive power for paddle movement.
