The study focused on improving the Xialong shoal in the Hongshui River by regulating the waterway. By dredging, cutting the shoal, and exploring the reef, the navigation channel was improved. This led to increased navigation depth, reduced gradient ratio, and better flow conditions, solving waterway obstructions. The changes created favorable conditions for safe shipping.
