Improving Strömmen Water Quality for a Healthier City

The City of Stockholm is adopting a local action program to improve the poor water quality in Strömmen, which is currently polluted by metals and chemicals, among other things. The program proposes measures such as cleaning contaminated bottoms, purifying stormwater from roads and the city, and improving habitats for animals and plants, aiming to meet EU environmental water standards and ensure a healthy aquatic environment for residents, which will also facilitate future housing development in the city.
