Test construction of flood protection wall at the customs harbor

As part of the redevelopment of Mainz's customs port, flood protection for the state capital has also been further expanded. If the Rhine reaches a level of 7.40 meters, a mobile wall will protect areas of Neustadt from the floodwaters in the future. A practical test at the beginning of September was to show whether all the elements fit together and the structure works without any problems—and it was a success. Here are a few pictures of the successful "dress rehearsal."
