(d) Additionally, these results confirm that constructed dykes in urban areas after
flood 1957 could protect the city as well.

River changes over time between 1956 and 2004 show that the river became
narrow, especially in middle (Figs. 6.37 - 6.39 ). The height of the dyke in the city
area was also increased 0.5 m after the 1957 flood to prevent the urban area from
any probable flood damages.
