The subject of the article concerns the stabilization of communication earthworks using the so-called lightweight retaining structures. The stability of the embankment with the embankment built with the gabion wall is analysed, assuming a uniformly distributed load on the crown and a case of unilateral water pressure in the event of a flood. Final results of stability calculations made with the Fellenius and Bishop method in the form of slip surface with the smallest value of the coefficient were presented. Then, assuming the case of damming up of flood water, discretization of the filtration area, velocity distribution and hydrodynamic grating and slip surfaces were developed. The variable parameter is the wall configuration.
