Medan drainage infrastructure development

Overview

Medan Mayor Rico Waas has been inspecting various drainage construction projects aimed at mitigating flooding across different districts in Medan.

In the Medan Helvetia district, work is underway on Jalan Gaperta to replace 80 cm channels with larger concrete u-ditch structures measuring 120 cm wide and 140 cm deep. This 1,047-meter project involves coordinating with PLN to relocate electricity poles to avoid structural interference.

In the Medan Selayang district, the Mayor inspected a 505-meter drainage system on Jalan Sei Asahan. This project, which follows a completed 200-meter phase, is designed to manage water in a low-lying basin by splitting flow toward Sei Putih and Sei Selayang. The Mayor emphasized that infrastructure improvements must be proactive to ensure resident safety before flooding occurs.
