Initial situation

This drain was regularly blocked by alluvial material.

Installation of a ring net barrier directly in front of the culverts that retains solid material and allows watery, fine material to flow through. The material was retained in the course of three debris flow events without impairing the through traffic. Following excavation the barriers were again fully functional.
