The Costa Brava Girona Water Consortium will invest more than €2M in improvements to the Portbou reservoir
The Costa Brava Girona Water Consortium will invest more than €2M in improvements to the Portbou reservoir over the next two years. In addition to this investment, the Catalan Water Agency (ACA) will provide funding to update the reservoir’s facilities.
Portbou reservoir, which has a capacity of 100,000 m3, will receive maintenance and safety updates that its previous owner, the municipal council, was unable to provide. In parallel, a self-protection plan has been drawn up and the safety regulations have been reviewed, while steps are being taken to implement safety measures for the local population and a number of renovation plans are being prepared. There are also plans to carry out improvement works this year on an alternative route to the reservoir, so that the upper part of the dam can be accessed in the event of flooding.
