City strengthens civil protection with new water level sensors
Reinheim. In times of increasing heavy rainfall events, the city of Reinheim is focusing on proactive flood prevention: Modern water level sensors at several locations in the city area now enable continuous monitoring of water levels and an early response in case of emergency.
Sensors are currently installed at four key locations – on Karl-Marx-Straße , at Cestasplatz , on Georgenstraße , and at the Zeilhard stormwater overflow basin be viewed "Civil Protection" menu item
In addition to the current water level, the system also indicates whether the level is rising or remaining constant. A traffic light system provides further information about the current hazard level.
“By installing these water level gauges at critical points, we are further expanding civil protection for our citizens,” explains Mayor Manuel Feick .
“This allows everyone to stay informed about the current situation. Above all, the measurement data enables the crisis management team to react quickly and effectively should a dangerous situation arise. This increases the safety of the people in our city.”
Citizens who have questions about the new water level measuring stations or flood prevention measures can contact the Reinheim public order office or find www.reinheim.de
