1. General information
2. Objectives of the intervention
Goals of the intervention
- To reduce the potential for inundation during heavy rains and overcome flood issues by application of green infrastructure strategies
- To use green infrastructure strategies like rain gardens and bioswales for stormwater management
- To develop rain gardens and bioswales in the city as a source to save groundwater
- To maximize the infiltration function of green open spaces
- To beautify the city layout by increasing green spaces, while using native species for plantation
- To create opportunities for relaxation/recreation for users (1,2,3,4).

Quantitative targets
- implement four bioswales and one rain garden
- develop a minimum of around 20 per cent of the green open space (1,2).
- develop a minimum of around 20 per cent of the green open space (1,2).
Monitoring indicators defined
- increase in green spaces for water management (1,2).
Sustainability challenge(s) addressed
Climate change adaptation: What were the goals of the NBS?
Climate change adaptation: What activities are implemented to realize the conservation goals and targets?
Implementation activities
- Construction of bioswales and rain garden in green belt areas and green open spaces such as:
The four bioswales that have been implemented are RTH Manggala on Jalan Penjompongan Raya, the green line for Jalan Tambak, the green line for Industrial Road, and the green line for Simpang Lima Senen and one rain garden that has been completed is at Tamai Boi Trans Park - Jalan Letjen Suprapto (1,2,3,4). The total area of the NBS initiative was 328.03 meters such as: The Manggala RTH bioswale (51.22 m); Tambak Road bioswale (43.5 m); Industrial Road bioswale (19.12 m); Simpang Lima Senen bioswale (16.19 m); and one rain garden at existing Tamai Boi Trans Park - Jalan Letjen Suprapto (198 m) (1).
- Increase in green spaces through the use of native plantations such as papyrus, centipede ferns, red reeds, green reeds, irish, pacing pin, kadaka, latana, fountain daffodils, aralia, pretty pink, yang liu, water bamboo and lollipops (1).
