The Almassora City Council has activated a specific plan to reinforce the review, cleaning, and adequacy of the municipality's drains. The measure comes as a precaution given the possibility of intense rainfall episodes occurring in the coming weeks.

The work is being carried out by workers from the company responsible for the street cleaning service, who are performing review and cleaning tasks on the drains scattered throughout the town.

The municipal plan aims to prevent possible flooding or drainage problems during periods of intense precipitation that may affect the area in the coming days.
