A dynamic steel barrier has been installed in the Cupiche ravine, located in the Ricardo Palma district of Huarochirí province. The structure is designed to intercept and retain rocks, mud, and debris carried by potential landslides, known locally as huaicos, during the rainy season.
The installation serves as a preventive measure against the impacts of the El Niño phenomenon. By capturing hazardous materials, the barrier aims to mitigate risks to the surrounding area and infrastructure during periods of heavy rainfall.
