Project summary
The Dinkel is a semi-natural river in the east of Twente. The water authority is optimising its flow for WFD and Natura 2000 purposes. To do this, the river was restructured in such a way that a great variation in substrate could exist without much maintenance. These substrates would inclde small riverside beaches, steep banks, carrs (broekbos), and abandoned meanders. Part of the design was completed in 2019, but the larger project is still ongoing.
Monitoring surveys and results
The first attempt to create a natural levee with indigenous vegetation was succesful.
