3 pumping stations, school covered court pinasinayaan sa Navotas

SA layunin ng Navotas na palakasin pa ang kanilang panlaban sa baha at community facilities, pinabasbasan at pinasinayaan ng Pamahalaang Lungsod sa pangunguna nina Mayor John Rey Tiangco at Congressman Toby Tiangco ang tatlong bagong pumping stations at school covered court.

Ang Navotas ay mayroon na ngayon kabuuang 87 estratehikong lokasyon na mga pumping station sa buong lungsod na matatagpuan sa Milflores St. sa Brgy. Tanza 2, M. Naval St. sa Brgy. Sipac-Almacen, at Taganahan St. sa Brgy. Bagumbayan South.

Samantala, ang bagong tayong covered court ay matatagpuan naman sa Dagat-dagatan Elementary school.

“We are building not just structures but stronger foundations for a safer and more progressive Navotas. These additional pumping stations will significantly reduce flood risks, safeguarding lives and livelihoods, especially during high tide and typhoon season,” ani Mayor Tiangco.

Binigyang-diin din niya ang kahalagahan ng bagong itinayong school facility.

“Education must continue, rain or shine. This covered court will provide students with protection from extreme heat and heavy rains, allowing them to focus on their school activities without disruption,” dagdag niya.

Binigyang-diin ni Congressman Tiangco, sa kanyang mensahe, ang mahalagang papel ng komunidad sa pagtiyak na mananatiling epektibo ang mga hakbangin sa pagkontrol sa baha ng lungsod

“Our pumping stations are powerful tools against flooding, but their effectiveness depends on all of us. Proper waste disposal and environmental responsibility are key to keeping them functioning optimally. Taking care of Navotas is a shared duty—let’s do our part to keep our city clean, safe, and flood-free,” pahayag naman ni Cong. Tiangco.

Dumalo rin sa naturang aktibidad sina Vice Mayor Tito Sanchez, mga miyembro ng konseho ng lungsod, mga barangay chairperson, at mga kinatawan mula sa Department of Public Works and Highways Malabon-Navotas District. (Richard Mesa)
