The relief channel in the meander of La Roza: a riparian corridor with more continuity and diversity for habitats.

The restoration of vegetation that is being carried out with vegetation typical of the Ebro riverbank in this channel, created during the morphological adaptation, gives us the excuse to talk about this type of intervention.
