Much Faster Than Sandbagging

No one was looking forward to sandbagging this low spot under the Dunkirk Bridge.
Fortunately the city is employing new technology this year.

These long tubes are filled with water (which is flowing by just meters away) and they become portable, re-usable dikes. Considering this stretch is about 250 meters long, many people are breathing a sigh of relief.
