The water level of Lake Biel is expected to drop further in the coming days. (archive image)

In addition to discontinuing the information hotline, the distribution of sandbags will also stop from Friday evening, the city of Biel announced on Friday. However, monitoring and prevention measures will continue in the coming days, in particular the closure of certain paths along the river. The harbor of the Bielersee Schiffahrtsgesellschaft, the Joranplatz, the path along the river to the restaurant “Capriccio” and the harbor pier in Vingelz are still affected.

After crossing the flood limit, the level of Lake Biel stabilized on Thursday and is slowly decreasing, according to a press release. Due to a weather phase with high pressure and little precipitation, this trend should continue in the coming days. Because more water flows out from under Lake Biel at the weir in Port BE, the level will probably drop even faster. As a result, the Aare will carry more water in the coming days. (SDA)
