The Dutch have various plans how to fight the sea in the next 300 years. One of them calls for dams around the big cities and letting everything else flood, moving 2 million people [1]. Compared to that is this project (well, the Dutch part at least) relatively trivial - dredge some sand from here and put it over there as dunes. The coast from Zeeland to Den Helder is not terribly ecologically interesting nor big in fishing so in that sense it's much easier than the Deltaworks.
The father of Deltaworks said “Eens zullen we ons land met een zucht van verlichting aan de golven prijsgeven.” "One day with a sigh of relief we will give up this country to the waves." Drastic solutions are required after sea level rise of 2m. So, maybe not this century but certainly the next one.
