Infrastructure and drainage works in Presidente Prudente

Overview

Infrastructure and drainage works are underway in Presidente Prudente, Brazil, to address structural issues caused by water management and erosion.

In the eastern zone, reconstruction of a rainwater gallery on Avenida Tancredo Neves has moved into a new phase. Following the replacement of approximately 230 meters of underground structure with large concrete pipes, efforts have shifted to micro-drainage recomposition, pavement recovery, and grass planting. This R$ 3.8 million project aims to resolve a long-standing crater issue caused by broken pipes.

Separately, concerns were raised regarding a reinforced concrete structure on Salim Farah Maluf Avenue after heavy rains caused erosion at its base. While residents feared an imminent collapse due to heavy traffic, municipal officials stated the structure does not pose a collapse risk, noting that the primary danger is limited to the sidewalk. Improvement works on the site are scheduled to begin following an evaluation by the Municipal Secretariat of Works.
