Ou don't need a degree in anything to see why it doesn't work.... They could use that water movement to generate electricity and also use suction pipes for desalination plants helping the tide to remain reduced...... Oh what about using the seawater to make electricity..... Now they'd have multiple benefits from the seawater all whist keeping the tide low...

So when I was a kid an aunt of mine went to Venice and I did some research about Venice and well what I found was insane. Lets stop the bullshit and actually do something that should have been done 140 years ago and evacuated the entire city of Venice. So really really stupid reality is Venice has been sinking and the sinking can not stop because stupidly the entire city is on a slap that has been crumbling and about 140 years ago people claim it was put on stilts but what in reality was done was pilers were placed diagonally into the base to slow its collapse because turns out over 200 years ago is when it was first found out that Venice is over a giant sink hole that there is a void under the city that the entire city will eventually fall into and every thing that is being done is not changing the fact that the city will fall into that void and in fact this new flood defense is not going to change the reality that that city is falling apart. In reality every single person still living in Venice is a moron. Reality is over 90% of that city is under water and unlivable. Hell around 80 years ago buildings were built on top of the old city that already fell into the void the city is constantly falling in and new buildings built on top of the old ones. The foundation that these buildings are on is quick sand and every existing building has unrepairable structural damage that is failing faster and faster. The reality is that entire city is only barely not dead and in reality scientists are horrified at the insanity that morons refuse to leave a place that actually should have fully collapsed almost 50 years ago and the fact its not fully fallen in is by random bullshit chance. This 7 billion dollar structure changes nothing about the reality that that city is a zombie city because its a corpse that should already be dead but is barely alive. These morons keep spending billions up on billions to trillions every single year to keep that city from fully collapsing. People call people morons when they refuse to move away from an area that has tornados that rip apart their houses every year but Venice is even stupider to live in because Venice should not exist because Venice is worse because it should have already fully collapsed but 1 of those ancient nearly 140 year old posts that was placed into the city is holding the entire city up and its breaking and when that single pole fully breaks or breaks enough which should have happened over 40 years ago but when it does break every single moron living in Venice will die. Venice is living on borrowed bullshit time and reality check should have been abandoned over a century ago because its a dead city.

Had you had at least a minimal knowledge of what you are talking about, you should have known that Venice's lagoon ALREADY has embankments protecting it (murazzi). They had been built in 18th century. It's not that they had to wait for the Dutch to teach them how to pile up dirt. What has to be regulated now, due to the mutated conditions of the lagoon and of the city in the past two and half centuries, is the passage of water in the OPENINGS between the embankments (bocche di porto) WITHOUT ALTERING THEM. They didn't want to build other embankments and didn't want to build evident structures like the Maeslantkering. Do you really think someone needs aid to build a flood gate?

It does not need to stop water from entering the lagoon altogether, it just needs to decrease the flow rate. Water enters the lagoon due to tidal effects, and a tidal cycle lasts approx. 8 hours. In fact, over the several times it has been tested it worked, and not all the three barriers needed to be raised

I live above the site of a 1909 dam on the Ohio River that used a similar system called “Bear Trap” gates. Same idea as this, except the sections were manually raised and lowered. That was abandoned in 1921 to make way for fixed crest dams with locks (which I note the system in this video also needed for some reason). It is astonishing that over one HUNDRED years later, they’re still making the same mistakes. There must have been some special interest behind this design for SURE!

Yeah and the fact they have forgotten important geography notes regarding rivers and their maintenance issues; deposition. Rivers carry crap along with them and when they lose energy such as near the mouth where they meet the sea. When the ramps go up and stop the flow there’s only one place where the crap can go that was carried downstream. It’s a problem along the sea coast too requiring harbours especially to be dredged routinely because of all the sand, trash and mud that gets thrown at the bottom.

and too expensive to make it work, because it's not automated, so it's humans doing everything.

The stupidity of this design is mind boggling. The platforms rise up and leave an empty space. Ofcourse there will be sedimentation so every time the platforms are up you will get dirt under them untill they won't properly close anymore. They will thus need to be regularly cleaned which is costly. Also, having all of the moving and important bits underwater will of course increase maintenance costs as you will need to work under water more and also have more work as the water will increase corrosion to those parts. I am Dutch and I agree with the other comments saying they should probably have consulted us...

The lagoon is artificial actually. Had "Mother Nature got his way", it would have been completely filled by sediments in 16th century. Since Venetians wanted their city to still be built on water, they changed the course of a pair of rivers. The lagoon had been saved, and the sediments started to build the nowadays delta of the Po river.
