Overflow (23 March 2022)

Engineer Jansen’s Triumphs: this water used to flood our land, up to, and into the garage. No more!
And this is only a medium rainfall, if it really downpours it floods.. So the concrete channel will be doubled.

This is when it rains hard and or long, and the land behind us gets waterlogged, and builds up behind the water tunnel. Before that water just drained into the tunnel, flowing towards our house. Even though the tunnel is blocked up some water seeped through into the garage.

So, engineer Jansen built another wall in the tunnel, invisible in the photo, but it's on the right of the overflow channel inside the tunnel. Secondly, the water now overflows via these channels, so most of it does not enter the tunnel any more, and is directed towards a newly dug canal in our land, flowing onto the land of the neighbour.
