Abstract

STORM WATER DRAINAGE SYSTEM OF BHOPAL CITY

Dr. Tapas Dasgupta*

ABSTRACT

Many cities in India ranging from large metropolitan to small transitional cities lack effective storm drainage systems and face problems due to illegal, unplanned development and encroachment often on natural areas and drainage systems/ways. As the cities develop and grow, benefits from important environmental functions (natural water ways/areas) are often ignored and overlooked because of which natural areas are degraded and damaged. This along with increase in built up area results in increase in incidences of flooding and accompanied ill effects. The densification of cities is leading to construction of roads, buildings which has resulted in increase in impermeable areas. Thus, often permanent changes to the catchment are caused, leading to changes in runoff patterns, which affect the magnitude, frequency and occurrence of flooding. This necessitates adoption of sustainable storm water management practices in cities. The study and the field observations stress on an urgent need for improvement of storm water Drainage system of Bhopal city as the town is facing water logging problems. Once the drainage network of town is improved and outfall of drains ensures the safe disposal of storm Water.
