Final study of the primary and secondary irrigation and drainage network of area II in Serres

This project is part of the reallocation plan for the plain. Therefore the existing irrigation system is fully redesigned, taking into account the optimal utilisation of the available water resources.
The works included:
- The designed network covers an area of 160.000.000 m².
- It is consisted of 9 irrigation zones, which are irrigated by pumping stations. Kerkini lake is the main supply reservoir providing water to all the irrigation zones through the main delivery canal.
- Downstream Control is used.
- The total length of the canals and ditches design (only primary and secondary network) is 600 km.
- All works are constructed based on the unfavourable geotechnical and geological conditions at the area, as it was concluded in the undertaken geotechnical investigation.
