Abstract: The aim of the study is to analyze the impact of the culvert on the hydraulic conditions of water flow in the “R” ditch. The culvert was located on the main ditch in drainage system of Łączany barrage on the Vistula river. The research on ditch’s capacity in analyzed cross-section showed that the capacity decreased. The changes of cross-section caused by construction of the culvert substantially affect the flow conditions of water in the channel. The calculations showed that the existing dimension of culvert is not enough to pass the reliable discharge. The reliable flow was set for catchment area of 3.32 km2, not 0.67 km2, which is bigger than catchment area estimated in drainage project. It includes watercourses leading water to ditch with surrounds Kasztelan Pond, and then to “R” ditch. Discharges larger than 2.27 m3·s–1, particularly reliable flow, reach banks of the ditch “R” and flows out the channel. Discharges larger than the reliable discharge do not fit into the analyzed cross-section causing pouring out the water from the channel. On the basis of information taken from the locals and serving the system it is known that such a phenomenon occurs during the periods of heavy rains and floods.
