Among many notable wine cellars on Anguilla, one holds no less than 35,000 bottles.
A change in the geometry of the Havana’s Malecon wall and its elevation to the point where the architecture allows, it will be carried out from next year as part of the State Plan for confronting climate change, called Task of Life.
Managers linked to that project announced that such work will begin in 2020 to avoid coastal floods, both maritime and rainwater, a resilience action that will bring benefits.
Currently, the structure of Havana’s Malecon is not as efficient as it is required to dissipate the energy of the wave, and therefore a great quantity of water goes beyond the wall and enters the avenue.
After performing a curvature, such situation can improve by a 40 or 50 percent, and in the second stage of the project that action will be complemented with the placement of embankments below the water level that prevent the wave attack with all the current force and it will solve that problem by 70%, approximately.
The first phase will cover the entire Malecon, the second only the necessary sections, and a third phase includes the introduction of submerged dikes.
Por último, y como cuarta fase se ubicarían elementos disipadores existentes en la hidráulica, y una opción en este sentido son los conocidos yaquis.
Finally, and as a fourth phase there would be existing dissipating elements in the hydraulics; and one option in this sense is the known “Yaquis”.
If the whole process is completed in Havana’s Malecon, which could last about 5 years or more, the flood situation would be resolved by 90 or 100 percent, and in addition there would be the option to improving the drainage systems.
