The construction of the new dam of the Santolea reservoir (Spain), fed by the Guadalope river, began in November 2018.
Its dimensions are 230 meters long, with a maximum height of 60 meters above the foundations.
In parallel, a reinforced concrete evacuation tunnel, 175 meters long, with a section of 9x5 meters was built in order to evacuate the rubble due to the construction and the sludge contained in the reservoir.
The total capacity of the new reservoir will be 104 cubic hectometers.
