Happy to have participated in the conference Free Flow 2024 in Groningen. I met many cool people working in dam removals that I could learn from and got the chance to present a poster. Understanding how to prioritize barriers would help to restore our rivers!

Second stop of the ##FreeFlowConference/ ##SwimCon24 excursion. The old fish trap at Sterrebos was still too much of a barrier for most species. So in 2018 @Noorderzijlvest created a bypass.
