Flood Alerts in Talavera Intensify

Published: 2025-03-23

Talavera de la Reina faces heightened flood risks as the Tajo and Alberche rivers swell due to increased dam releases and heavy rainfall forecasts.

Civil Protection issued a second alert in ten days, urging residents to avoid flood-prone areas and seek higher ground if necessary.

Schools near the rivers suspended classes, and emergency protocols remain active, with shelters prepared for potential evacuations.

In Toledo, a 300-meter containment barrier was installed near the National Paraplegics Hospital to prevent flooding.

Regional authorities emphasize coordinated efforts to monitor and mitigate risks, while urging residents to stay cautious.

The situation remains critical, with water levels monitored closely to prevent further damage.
