Ebersbach an der Fils was severely affected by the extreme flooding that occurred in the region in early summer 2024. Tractebel Hydroprojekt was awarded the contract by the Stuttgart Regional Council to implement several measures to further improve flood protection.

On the one hand, the corresponding reinforcement of an existing noise barrier is to be planned up to approval. On the other hand, a groundwater model is to be created for the entire municipal area as a basis for planning the internal drainage. To this end, once a network of groundwater measuring points has been created that covers the entire area, groundwater monitoring is planned for an entire hydrological year.
