Why were weirs built?
Weirs are built to alter the flow of a river, usually to cause a pool to form on the upriver side. This helps to prevent flooding, make the river navigable, and in some cases help river management measure discharge of water.
Do weirs prevent flooding?
Weirs can help manage water flow and reduce the risk of flooding by controlling the discharge of water in rivers and streams. They create a barrier that can regulate water levels, slowing down the flow and allowing for better management of excess rainfall or runoff. However, while weirs can mitigate flooding in certain areas, they are not a foolproof solution and may not prevent flooding during extreme weather events. Proper design and maintenance are crucial for their effectiveness in flood management.
