Mumbai’s roads can flood after just a few hours of rain. But Tokyo continues to function even during powerful typhoons. 🌧️
One reason is G-Cans, one of the world’s largest underground flood-control systems. Massive tunnels and storage chambers divert excess rainwater beneath the city, before powerful pumps safely release it into the Edo River. The result? Roads remain open, trains keep running, and daily life continues with minimal disruption.
As extreme rainfall becomes more frequent, could engineering solutions like these help Indian cities become more resilient? Should India invest in underground flood-control systems? Share your thoughts below. 👇
