In early July 2026 the city of Olomouc announced a multi‑billion‑CZK programme aimed at strengthening flood defenses across the region. By the end of the month the Olomoucký Regional Office approved a specific 850‑million‑CZK project for the village of Troubky in the Přerov district. The plan includes about 5.5 km of earth dams, reinforced‑concrete walls and mobile barriers to guard against a potential “century flood” on the Bečva River. Local officials noted that engineering work would finish within the year, with construction to begin the following year and a two‑year completion target. Funding is expected mainly from the Ministry of Agriculture, alongside environmental mitigations such as tree planting to offset vegetation loss.
