Imphal City Flood DPR (India)

Jomiso prepared a comprehensive Detailed Project Report (DPR) for flood mitigation and drainage improvement in Imphal City, under the National Hydrology Project. The project focused on identifying critical drainage bottlenecks, understanding flood propagation dynamics, and developing sustainable engineering and nature-based solutions to reduce urban flood vulnerability.

The study combined hydrological, hydraulic, and geospatial modelling to evaluate multiple flood scenarios and identify high-risk areas. Innovative interventions such as the Lamphelpat wetland diversion were proposed to enhance stormwater retention capacity and restore natural hydrological balance in the city’s floodplain.

This initiative, funded by the World Bank under the National Hydrology Project, aimed to improve urban flood resilience while promoting eco-sensitive urban development and sustainable infrastructure design for long-term climate adaptation.
