Doha, Qatar - The Public Works Authority, known as Ashghal, has taken steps to significantly boost the efficiency of Qatar's stormwater drainage system. Over 4,061 stormwater debris traps have been installed across the country's drainage network, part of routine maintenance works aimed at safeguarding infrastructure assets.
These traps are designed to capture sand, leaves, and other waste, which can otherwise obstruct underground pipes and lead to water accumulation and flooding during heavy rainfall. By preventing such blockages, the traps help maintain the operational capacity of the drainage system.
The Authority highlighted that the debris traps are user-friendly, allowing for simple removal and cleaning without specialized equipment. This design supports sustainable maintenance practices and ensures the continuous efficiency of the drainage infrastructure.
Ashghal emphasized that these works are part of their ongoing commitment to maintaining infrastructure efficiency and sustaining public utility assets nationwide, all while protecting the performance of the stormwater drainage network.
