Doha, Qatar: The Public Works Authority ‘Ashghal’ continues the Construction of a New Rainwater Pump Station in Semaisma, as part of its ongoing efforts to develop sustainable infrastructure and enhance the efficiency of rainwater drainage networks. The project aims to improve road safety, enhance quality of life, and support urban development across Qatar.
Project Engineer at the Drainage Networks Projects Department, Eng. Ali Mostafawi explained that the project aims to complete an advanced rainwater collection and drainage system in Semaisma, through the construction of a modern pump station connected to the rainwater drainage network currently being implemented under the Semaisma Project (Package 4).
Rainwater will be collected and pumped to a designated collection point for future reuse, contributing to more efficient water resource management and supporting environmental sustainability.
He added that the project serves Semaisma Main Street and Semaisma West Street, and forms part of an integrated system designed to enhance the area’s preparedness during the rainy season and reduce rainwater accumulation. This will help maintain smooth traffic flow, improve road safety, and ensure service continuity during rainfall.
The project includes the construction of a new stormwater pump station, together with the associated infrastructure and supporting facilities required to connect it to the area’s stormwater drainage network.
These works will enhance the efficiency of the stormwater drainage network, reduce the risk of stormwater accumulation and flooding.
