Dubai Approves 100-Year Deep-Tunnel Drainage System To Combat Extreme Flooding
Sep 26, 2025·By Tonna Beneto
Dubai has greenlit a massive infrastructure project to build a deep-tunnel drainage network designed to protect the city from flooding for the next century, a move driven by the severe rainstorms it experienced in April 2024.
The system will integrate smart technologies (such as GIS for flood-scenario analysis) and rely on public-private partnerships to manage costs and expertise.
By building this long-term resilience infrastructure, Dubai aims to safeguard its urban areas, roads, buildings, and public assets from future extreme weather events.
