With relief and enthusiasm, both the authorities and residents of El Banco welcomed the news of the increase in the flow of the emblematic Magdalena River, after several months in which its levels were below usual.
According to the latest reports from local authorities, the level of the Magdalena River near the municipality of El Banco has reached 4.95 meters. This figure marks a significant increase compared to previous records and signals the beginning of the recovery of its average flow, since at the beginning of this year, the level at this point in the department was 1.97 meters.
The decrease in the levels of the Magdalena River had generated concern among the inhabitants of the region, especially those who depend on the river for their livelihood and commercial activities. However, with this increase in water level, it is expected that the environmental balance will be restored and conditions for various economic and river transport activities will be improved.
Local authorities continue to closely monitor the evolution of the situation and remain on alert to implement additional measures if necessary. Likewise, they call on the community to continue contributing with practices that promote the conservation of the river and its environment.
This increase in the levels of the Magdalena River represents a ray of hope for El Banco and its surroundings, who see in the recovery of the river’s flow an opportunity to revitalize their economic activities and preserve this invaluable natural resource.
