The last big floods in February 2007 affected more than 2.6 million people, forcing 340,000 people to flee their homes. Over 70 people died and outbreaks of disease affected over 200,000 people. The estimated financial and economic losses from this event amounted to US$900 million. Inundations continue to occur under any sustained rainfall conditions. To improve Jakarta’s flood management system, this project will dredge selected floodways, canals and retention basins to improve their flow capacities and dispose dredge materials in proper facilities.
