The focus is on the planned emergency drain route at the entrance to the town, which is urgently needed to safely guide the surface water from the terrace -shaped Wildgrafenberg.

The object planner Roland Bicking from Dr. Pecher AG in Bingen urgently warned of the dangers that emerge from the steep slopes in the Wildgrafenberg.
