Fukagawa Flood Control Project

The Fukagawa Flood Control Project in Tokyo is a large-scale engineering effort designed to protect the area from flooding caused by heavy rain and storm surges. It involves constructing barriers, levees, and drainage systems to control water flow, especially around the Edo River and surrounding neighborhoods. The goal is to prevent flood damage to homes, businesses, and infrastructure, ensuring safety and minimizing economic loss during extreme weather events. This project reflects Tokyo’s proactive approach to urban flood risk management, combining traditional engineering with modern technology for effective flood defenses.
