Inspection of the G. Araneta Drainage Improvement 05/20/2026

President Ferdinand R. Marcos Jr. inspects the G. Araneta Drainage Improvement Project along E. Rodriguez Sr. Avenue in Quezon City on May 20, 2026. In line with the government’s nationwide ‘Oplan Kontra Baha’ program, the project involves installing two 1.50-meter-diameter High-Density Polyethylene (HDPE) pipes as part of the upgrading and rehabilitation of the existing drainage system. This aims to address recurring flooding along G. Araneta Avenue, from Kaliraya Street to E. Rodriguez Sr. Avenue, with the drainage ultimately discharging into the San Juan River.  During the inspection, the President receives a briefing on coordinated efforts to remove garbage, restore the natural flow of water, and address the root causes of flooding in the area. He then inspects the ongoing pipe-laying project and observes the operation of the mobile pumping equipment used to help mitigate flooding.
