Without the municipality's preventive measures for rainy days, what would be the situation in Tehran?
Spokesman of the Municipality of Tehran:
During the standby period for these two days, 10,000 people from the municipal services sector worked in three shifts in all parts of the city.
One of the main actions taken before the rains, based on the weather forecasts, was the treatment of the Shahid Bakri Canal in District 5.
Due to complex technical and operational problems, this canal was not cleaned for about 15 years, which hindered the flow of surface water.
Additionally, over the past month and a half, about 550 kilometers of Tehran's main and underground canals have been inspected and cleaned in all 22 districts, right up until Friday.
