Sustainability challenge(s) addressed
What types of restoration goals are / were defined for the NBS intervention?
What activities are implemented to realize the restoration goals and targets?
Implementation activities
- Revitalization of the two existing ponds [4];
- Ponds were cleaned, elutriated and deepened [3];
- Building two additional ponds for the breeding of amphibians [2];
- Reconstruction of the causeway destroyed by local beavers. Creating winter breeding and the island for waterbirds in the area [4];
- Creating two nesting islands, covered with native vegetation [3];
- Designating a protected area (not accessible for the public) [3];
- Cleaning and drying of the pheasant below the bridge at Marczukowska Street, which will allow the outflow of the excess waters to the Biała river [2];
- Building new paths, an ornithological tower, an observation deck and a gazebo [4];
- Constructing benches, bins and bicycle racks. Creating a separate barbecue area [4].
