- Abstract:
- Hong Kong is often attacked by typhoons and rainstorms, but they only lead to slight losses. This is due to its construction of flood control and drainage engineering system in advance. This paper first analyzes the problems faced by the flood control in Hong Kong, and then briefly reviews the history of the systematic stormwater drainage plan in Hong Kong. The characteristic experiences are summarized from upstream river closure, flood storage in the middle reaches and channel expansion in the lower reaches. The main construction contents of flood control projects at each stage are described in detail. Finally, the enlightenment for works in Chinese other cities is put forward.
