    Bell Dredging conducted some trials to see if Bell pumps could aid in the construction of an underground parking garage in Amsterdam’s city centre. After the tests had proven successful, Bell was awarded a rental contract for a Bell 100 A-frame dredger including Bell 100 dredge pump, power pack and water jet pump.
