Valenzuela tackles flood woes during summit
The City Government of Valenzuela, in partnership with the UP Resilience Institute, has launched a comprehensive flood mitigation and drainage master plan, highlighted during the 'PANATAG: Valenzuela's Flood Control Resilience Initiatives' summit.
The summit was convened following recent typhoons that caused widespread flooding and displacement in the city.
Valenzuela, being a low-lying area, is inherently susceptible to flooding due to its numerous creeks and drainage lines.
The city's strategy includes community-driven initiatives like 'Tinig ng Barangay' for direct resident feedback and large-scale cleanups through 'Task Force Kalinisan' and 'Oplan Balik Linis Ganda'.
Infrastructure solutions are also being implemented, focusing on the expansion and rehabilitation of pumping stations in critical flood-prone barangays.
