Rijkswaterstaat - Regional Services

Regional Services

Rijkswaterstaat is divided in regional services, formerly known as directies. Every regional service is managed by a hoofdingenieur-directeur (HID). The regions are divided in local water- en wegendistricten (water and road districts), formerly known as dienstkringen. In the past, every province had its own regional organisation, but the directies Groningen, Friesland and Drenthe are merged, forming the service Noord-Nederland; and the directies Overijssel and Gelderland are merged to form the service Oost-Nederland. The following regional services exist:

  • RWS Noord-Nederland (located in Leeuwarden)
  • RWS Noord-Holland (located in Haarlem)
  • RWS IJsselmeergebied (located in Lelystad)
  • RWS Oost-Nederland (located in Arnhem)
  • RWS Utrecht (located in Utrecht)
  • RWS Zuid-Holland (located in Rotterdam)
  • RWS Zeeland (located in Middelburg)
  • RWS Noord-Brabant (located in 's-Hertogenbosch)
  • RWS Limburg (located in Maastricht)
  • RWS Noordzee (located in Rijswijk)
