The main objective of the measure is to strengthen the capacity and security of the high-level water supply systems, addressing the unavailability and degradation of existing water sources and reduced flow rates. According to the Vice-President of the Municipal Council, Joaquim Tavares, the planned interventions will restore water abstraction capacity, improve system resilience, and reduce the risk of interruptions in public supply.
