The Ampsin-Neuville lock is the 3rd busiest in Wallonia. The site, which was put into service in 1958, has been thoroughly renovated in recent years (from 2018), reducing waiting times for skippers and allowing larger boats to pass through. The works were completed this year, 2024.
A new fish ladder is provided in the lock complex - the largest in Wallonia! - a real artificial river, so that aquatic animals can cross the weir

A "Passerelle Cyclopétienne" has been built over the whole, allowing walkers (or cyclists) to avoid the bridge on the N684, located 800m to the west.

From the bridge you can look - westwards - at the three cooling towers of the Tihange nuclear power plant.

Please note: on the Komoot map, the location where the path to the footbridge is indicated does not correspond to the recent situation: the new concrete path is located 70 metres further east on the Rue Entre Deux Saisons.
