Paaafr Racing Against Time To Complete Project
The Public Authority for Roads and Land Transport is racing against time to complete the project of supplying and installing pumps and constructing pipes to transport water to the Public Authority for Agriculture Affairs and Fish Resources tanks to solve the problem of rainwater collecting in the residential city of Sabah Al-Ahmad, a project that was launched last April at a cost of 4.8 million dinars – the project that is expected to temporarily solve the problem of water accumulation in the area.
Director of the PAAAFR Implementation Department, Eng. Khaled Dhawi Al-Osaimi, said in a statement to Al-Qabas, 75 percent of the project has been completed so far.
He added the project also includes the installation of a number of suction pumps, as well as triple-treated sewage water, to carry into the PAAAFR tank over an area of one square kilometer and can accommodate one million cubic meters of water.
The project manager at the authority, Eng Yahya Al-Moussawi told Al-Qabas the old lakes, which were the subject of complaints by the city’s residents, will dry up within two months after the pumps begin operations and pump the water into the newly built reservoir.
He explained that the authority is currently waiting to obtain municipal licenses to build the pump rooms, their own buildings, and then connect the electricity and operate them directly. These procedures are expected to be completed within two months, and after the operation, all the surrounding water-filled lakes in the city will dry up.
He pointed out that the city’s accumulated water problem will be radically resolved following the completion of the Umm Al-Hayman station expansion project and transferring the collected water to it for treatment instead of storing it in the new tank.
