Regensburg allows the Danube to pass through its protective barriers.

Crises or Urgent Situations - Regensburg allows the Danube to pass through its protective barriers.

Whenever the water rises to a certain point on the Werftstraße side, the pumps will be activated once more, emphasized Köstlinger. This means that flooding isn't really an issue for that area. The protective elements won't be opened to regulate the water, but the seeping water on the Werftstraße won't be drained from certain spots.

Due to the precarious situation with high water levels, two ships in Regensburg were moved during the night, as pointed out by Köstlinger. The crew was flown to the ships via helicopter. The goal was to dock both of them at special spots, ensuring they stay steady.
