Roles of Public Infrastructure

Physical link between:• Production – provides physical access to

production inputs and markets; • Protection – helps protects communities from

hazards by mitigating the impact of natural calamities; and

• Settlements – integrating settlements to form a network of areas which serve as production and consumption

Role of Infrastructure

Inadequate infrastructure can lead to:

- Urban decay

- when parts of the city or locality become run-down undesirable to live in

- Slum housing with outside toilets

- Buildings that are poorly built and have leaky roofs, sagging windows and the like

- Empty buildings that have been vandalized

Inadequate infrastructure can lead to:

STRATEGIC CONSIDERATION

IN PUBLIC WORKS/

INFRASTRUCTURE PLANNING

Considerations in Infra Planning

• Prioritize and implement infrastructure projects that allow increased access to basic social and other development services while servicing production and commerce

• Ensure compatibility of infrastructure with local land use and development plans

• Attainment of environmental stability through observance of standards that regulate physical development and curtail unnecessary resource degradation

Considerations in Infra Planning

• Promote local and private participation in the planning and implementation of infrastructure projects

• Protect infrastructure right-of-way

• Incorporate disaster mitigation in infrastructure development

WATER SUPPLY

DEVELOPMENT

Sources and categories of service

• Major sources: rainfall, surface water and ground water, including spring.

• Categories of public water supply systems in terms of service level:

– Level I point source – a protected well or a developed spring with an outlet (also includes rain collector) but no distribution system; normally serves 15 households; yields between 40 to 150 liters/minute

Level I point source

Sources and categories of service

• Level II communal faucet system – system composed of a faucet, a reservoir or a piped distribution network and a communal faucet located not more than 25 m from the farthest house; supplies about 40-80 liters per capita per day; average one (1) faucet servicing 4 to 6 households

Sources and categories of service

• Level III individual house connection – with reservoir, source, piped distribution network and household taps, serving about 1,800 households

DATA REQUIREMENTS FOR PLANNING

• Description of waterworks system

– Source of water

– Capacity (li/sec)

– Existing distribution system (location of main reservoir, pumping station, treatment facilities)

– Capacity of pumping station

– Existing water rates

DATA REQUIREMENTS FOR PLANNING

• Location, capacity and household served by Level II system or communal faucets

• Number of households served by level I system

• Other water sources utilized (e.g., water peddlers and number of households served)

• Average monthly expenses incurred for water

DATA REQUIREMENT FOR PLANNING

• Other water-related data

– Location of watersheds

– Location and description of other untapped potential sources

– Location and description of potential sources of groundwater pollution

• Water resources

– Surface water

– Lakes and other water impounding structures

DRAINAGE

DRAINAGE

Systems for dealing with excess waterThree primary drainage tasks:

o Urban storm drainage – stormwater collected in the streets and conveyed through inlets to buried conduits which carry it to a point where it can be safely discharged into a stream, lake, or ocean

o Land drainage – removes excess surface water from an area or lowers the ground-water below the root zone to improve plant growth or reduce the accumulation of soil salts

o Highway drainage – water collecting on the roadway (or on the adjacent and slopes if the road is cut) must be disposed of without flooding or damaging the highway and adjacent areas

Typical Cross Section of Roadways

FLOOD-DAMAGE MITIGATION

Sources of flooding

• Tidal flooding

– Sudden flooding from sea and tidal rivers

– Caused by combination of low pressure weather systems and peak high tides

– often possible to forecast with reasonable accuracy, due to the predictability of the tide and trackability of low pressure systems

– Where drainage is available, the duration of the flood is likewise predictable

Sources of flooding

• Fluvial flooding

– Occurs in the bank of river when capacity is exceeded due to heavy precipitation or blockages of the water courses

• Ground water flooding

– Low lying areas sitting over aquifers may

periodically flood as ground water levels rise

Sources of flooding

• Pluvial flooding

– Surface water flooding is caused by rainwater run-off from urban and rural land with low absorbency

– Increased intensity of development has reduced permeable areas

– often exacerbated by overloaded and outdated drainage infrastructure

Sources of flooding

• Flooding from sewers

– Occurs when capacity of sewers is exceeded due to large amounts of surface water run-off in a short time

– Poor cleaning and maintenance can lead to blockages that can also cause local flooding

– Difficult to predict

Sources of flooding

• Flooding from man-made infrastructure

– Canals, reservoirs and other man-made structures can fail causing flooding to areas downstream

Factors which determine the effect of floods

• Level of predictability

• Rate of onset of flood

– Flash floods

• Duration of the flood

Flood control

RESERVOIRS

• Function of a flood-mitigation reservoir is to store a portion of the flood flow so as to minimize the flood peak at the point to be protected

Retarding Basins

Levees

Detention Ponds

Canals

Minimizing the Consequences

Building Resiliency

• Elevate the homes, schools and public buildings above flood level.

• Use water-resistant building materials, such as concrete or ceramic, in areas where frequent flooding is a risk.

• Ensure that important appliances, such as heating and electrical systems, are raised high above flood level.

• Install water-tight flood shields or barriers for basement windows, doors, and other openings.

• Flooding can cause sewage to back up into houses through drain pipes, creating a health hazard. Install sewer backflow valves to prevent this risk

Non-structural Measures

• Good early warning system in place

• Land planning

– Where possible, prevent building and development on flood-prone lands. Use land along rivers for parks or ecological reserves.

– If industry is based on the flood-prone areas, ensure there is flood-proofing and plans to evacuate machinery and materials which might be damaged by a flood.

– Protect wetlands and flood plains

Non-structural Measures (Con’t)• Land planning

– Maintain natural vegetation and forest cover in wetlands and flood plains. Trees help the soil hold water!

– Restore and protect degraded wetlands and flood plains. These areas can store large amounts of flood water.

– Make room for rivers to flow naturally. Creating more space for rivers, flood plains, and wetlands is a major contribution to flood prevention and protection
