Description

Upgrade the drainage network of Lisbon, including drainage tunnels and ancillary infrastructure to reduce the frequency and magnitude of floods in the city.

Objectifs

Lisbon has been suffering from intense and more frequent flood events in the past years. These events not only negatively affect the tourism industry, but more importantly, cause long lasting detrimental effects to the city population, as well as to its property and heritage. The project is intended to minimize the recurring and increasing problem of flooding while increasing infrastructure resilience in specific vulnerable areas of the City of Lisbon, including parts of the historical city centre. The project is part of the Lisbon's Drainage Master Plan 2016-2030, which includes recommendations regarding a number of structural interventions in the city.
