- Daylighting of the river Roombeek: it flows through a canal in the city center and in its old stream bed in the park
- Integration of a water playground
- Initiation of stormwater and purged groundwater
- Installation of huge underground tubes that store big amounts of stormwater and protects the inner city from flooding
