Solutions
In 1987, the study was conducted to Barranquilla Urban Drainage, by the International Cooperation Agency of the Japanese Mission, JICA. The study of the Japanese mission was one of themost complete on the problems of the streams, and established that the comprehensive and definitive solution, none other, that the construction of a storm sewer. The result was already known: thesolution is costly. The solution proposed by the Mission, was based on an earlier channeling of streams that develop in the ways of the city, while for the streams in the south-west, the plan includedother measures to control floods.
The Japanese mission, made ​​recommendations designed to mitigate the effects of streams. Among the recommendations, which, incidentally, have not been developed withsufficient are installing the gutters on both sides of the road, major collector roads channel (box culverts), combination of the two previous cases, and installation of drainage in futureimprovement plans. It was also suggested solutions to establish the most important roads, as critical sites of greatest influx of water, according to the mobility of the population, in an east - west, or viceversa, within these "hot spots" would be 21 races , 38, 46, 51B and 54, and roads 47, 45, 17 and 84. Also raised the possibility of building water reservoirs, to reduce runoff volumes and facilitatethe movement of vehicles and pedestrians. The reservoirs could be built in a location near parks, in order to draw this water through underground pipes to irrigate them.

Unplanned growth.This related to the phenomenon of migration affecting urban areas. Fewer opportunities for work and education, access to health facilities, low productivity and violence in the camps are among others,the factors driving migration, and whose rat far exceeds the capacity of cities to provide a adequate infrastructure, properly planned, with coverage of basic services and ultimately results in...
