| Executive Description | The works consisted of analyzing and diagnosing the hydrological and hydraulic behavior of the basins and stream channels within the urban area of the City of Durango as well as the existing infrastructure for the control and conduction of rainwater. The causes of the flooding problems presented in the urban area were identified and with this solution alternatives were proposed with their corresponding feasibility analysis. The works that would integrate the rainwater network and the rectifications for channeling the streams were chosen, proceeding to carry out the executive projects and corresponding investment budgets. Finally, the Master Plan for the Execution of the works was drawn up from a technical and social point of view. |
