An initiative to clean up and improve flood control in Colombia’s Bogota river will receive some USD250 million in financing from the World Bank.
The project will help to make water in the river’s middle basin suitable for agricultural use. It will also rehabilitate eight areas covering wetlands and meanders and spanning 175 kilometers, which can serve as flood detention areas, ecological habitats and public spaces.
