Flood-prone Areas Of Parañaque City Inspected By DPWH Secretary
Remember how terrible flooding was in Parañaque City last year? A lot of locals do not want such cases of flood to happen again and already there are those who said that Parañaque should be renamed as Baharañaque. In a serious attempt to prepare the city for the incoming rainy season, Department of Public Works and Highways (DPWH) Secretary Vince Dizon personally inspected the flood-prone areas of the city and he was accompanied by 2nd District Representative Brian Yamsuan, according to a news report by The Daily Tribune.
To put things in perspective, posted below is an excerpt from the news report of The Daily Tribune. Some parts in boldface…
The Department of Public Works and Highways (DPWH) is partnering with local lawmakers to fast-track long-term drainage upgrades and dredging operations along critical creeks to resolve severe flooding that frequently paralyzes major thoroughfares in the city.
DPWH Secretary Vince Dizon and Parañaque Representative Brian Yamsuan on Monday conducted a joint inspection of flood-prone areas, specifically targeting Dr. A. Santos Avenue in front of the Manila Memorial Park.
During heavy downpours, floodwaters in the area can rise up to four meters high, blocking access to the Skyway and the South Luzon Expressway, which triggers massive traffic gridlock.
Dizon said a key immediate solution is to dredge Villanueva Creek, which runs inside the cemetery, to allow floodwaters to flow freely into (Don Galo) Creek. Dongalo Creek will also undergo extensive dredging to clear accumulated garbage and silt.
The broader infrastructure plan includes a major overhaul of the Parañaque drainage system, which will replace old, narrowed concrete pipes with high-capacity drainage lines.
Officials cited during the inspection that uneven road elevation along Dr. A. Santos Avenue — formerly known as Sucat Road — compounds the problem. Low-lying sections of the highway trap rainwater, while clogged roadside canals slow down the rate at which the water recedes.
Dizon and Yamsuan also inspected the (Don Galo) River, another source of flooding that sends water rushing four to five feet high into nearby residential areas, severely affecting Barangay Santo Niño, Moonwalk Subdivision, and portions of Multinational Village.
As a quick-fix solution before the onset of the rainy season, Dizon recommended constructing temporary water detention basins beneath local basketball courts to contain excess runoff before pumping it out toward waterways leading to Manila Bay.
Let me end this post by asking you readers: What do you think about this recent development? If you are a resident of Parañaque, were you or your neighbors badly affected by the flood that happened in the city in 2025? Do you think flooding in Parañaque has worsened over the past ten years? Do you wish the City Government officials would do much more to prevent flooding from happening again?

@BashStKid This is #Devon #rain #floods #fields #food there are roads narrow enough to surprise visitors partly due to the high banks, hedges etc.
Too much rain for them.
While one may stop the rain running out of the field, it forms a puddle, lake, unmanageable anaerobic mess, within the field, where crops were hoped for.
Reducing the water landing in the field, whatever one does with it, is worth thinking about, I think.

Draining Lago di Garazas, the giant puddle that I had to wade through every time I wanted to fetch something from the garbarn.
Next to the barn was a mysterious old hole with some pipes in it which looked like part of an old drainage system. Good opportunity to test that. I pumped the entire giant puddle into that and it disappeared into a downhill pipe that emptied instantly.
Nice, because the yard could do with some drainage, as you can see.

Re: A drainage problem at the new football field site
The only other drainage problem I found was that they still had this drain covered so the water was overflowing this bathroom area and down into the parking lot.
It does show a good view of the front of the stadium on a cloudy day though :-)

Re: A drainage problem at the new football field site
At least one of the drains is working.
They did a lot of work and have 3 drainage basins on the site. Eventually the water on this site will drain as part of the Alum creek watershed.

A drainage problem at the new football field site
They spent a few months moving dirt and setting up drainage for the site, and it seems like there are a few problems from the rain storm that passed through this morning.
