Specifically, the project of the Expo is to build a concrete channel fifteen feet wide by others as long with a depth of one meter. A meter deep that aims to win over the current slab, which is in a state of severe deterioration, we must add the thickness of the concrete slab to be installed in the bed, about one meter.
