Constructions Overview
Narrative Description of Project:
Indonesia has a tropical monsoonal climate with distinct wet and dry seasons, and about 80% of its rainfall is concentrated in the wet season. Semarang, where the project is located, has suffered from flood damage for many years as a result of its climate and topography, and flood countermeasures are an urgent matter. Moreover, water shortage has become a problem, particularly in the dry season, as a result of the population growth that is accompanying the industrialization and urbanization of Semarang, leading to severe land subsidence caused by excessive abstraction of underground water due to the lack of surface water. An integrated water resources management strategy is therefore required.
Objective of the Project
– To mitigate fold and inundation damages along the West Floodway / Garang River, to develop water resources for the municipal use in Semarang city and to reduce the inundation damages in the northern central area ofSemarang City;
