During low river discharges, the available width of the navigation channel of the upstream part of the river between Westervoort and Deventer is locally reduced from 40 m to 25, or even 20 m at some spots. Additionally, the strong meandering character with deep water outer bends and shallow water inner bends make the IJssel even more challenging to navigate under low discharge conditions.
