We developed the "Action plan for the implementation of measures addressing natural hazards" for the municipality of Männedorf. This included restoring the continuity of the village creek, with incrementally removing a dam while monitoring the effects. We assisted the municipality with hydraulic engineering and design measures to create a long-term stable and near-natural stretch of water.
