Four new pumping stations and a desilting drive across eleven drains form the core of this year's preparation.
The flood control cell has signed off on its readiness plan, built around four new pumping stations and a desilting drive covering eleven major drains.
Three of the four stations are on the low lying eastern side, where waterlogging lasted longest during last year’s heavy spells.
Desilting is scheduled to finish before the end of the month, ahead of the first sustained rain.
