In the Barrio Blanco sector of Cumanacoa, in the Montes municipality of Sucre state, work continues to strengthen the security of each home in the face of the flow of the Manzanares River.

The Risk Mitigation Plan is implemented by the National Government through the team of the Ministry of People's Power and Public Works.

Currently, the work fronts are carrying out the second phase of construction of 200 meters of retaining wall in the river with the purpose of optimizing the hydraulic capacity of the riverbed, preventatively mitigating the risk of flooding and consolidating a safer future for families in the area.

To date, the project has registered significant progress of 2,500 linear meters of dredging and canalization, achieving the removal of 12,640 cubic meters of material to optimize water flow and condition the land for the next phases.

At the same time, the casting of 661 cubic meters of concrete intended for the foundation and the slab was successfully completed.

Simultaneously, the technical teams carry out the selection and transfer of stone for the gabions, counting so far more than 3,500 cubic meters selected.

In addition, on the construction front of the retaining wall, hard work is being done on the installation of structural meshes that will guarantee the strength of the work.
