To address monsoon flooding and rainwater drainage issues, AMC is implementing a modular rainwater harvesting system with catchpits at approximately 1,000 locations. These will be installed on the ring road, from Pakwan Junction to Keshavbagh, and from Airport Circle to Dafnala, including newly constructed roads. This initiative is expected to prevent waterlogging and recharge groundwater levels.
If successful, the system will be expanded to an additional 1,500 locations. Tenders have been issued, marking Ahmedabad as the first city in the state to introduce this system.
