Flood Control Solutions for
Transit Systems & Subways

Prevent Flooding At Metro and Transit Stations

Public transportation systems rely on structural integrity as well as protection in order to stay on schedule. Flooding has the ability to not only derail, but to completely halt public transportation networks.

With a significant portion of public transportation being built underground, including subways and tunnel systems, they are usually the first to deal with the effects of catastrophic flood events in urban areas. When traditional drainage systems are overwhelmed due to rapid rainfall, overflowing rivers, or storm surges, transit systems can sustain millions of dollars worth of damage if unprotected. Transit authority yard flooding has the potential to damage buses, train cars, and maintenance vehicles, causing additional disruption.

Garrison Flood Control has the protective flood solutions to assist with public transit flood emergencies. In times where every moment of preparation counts, Garrison’s easy-to-deploy solutions provide effective way of protecting your infrastructure.

Garrison flood barriers help you contain and re-route water away from important facilities and can contain and hold back damaging water.
