Infra Stories: Case Espoo

In this episode of Infra Stories, we dive into the city of Espoo and its groundbreaking stormwater management project with Ramboll Finland. Espoo was the first city in Finland to install the Uponor Vortex Stormwater Separation Chamber, addressing urban flood risks and maintenance costs caused by rapid development and climate change.
