Project summary

Edit project overview to modify the project summary.

The Oeffeltsche Raam is part of system of interconnected brooks, the largest of which is the Oploosche Molenbeek, that discharge into the river Meuse. The stream was lined with trees that provided shading. To improve the accessibility of the surrounding area, some trees had to be removed. This was done while trying to preserve sufficient shading.
