Characteristics of the open drains network varied by neighborhood (Table 4). Bukom had the densest drain network, followed by Alajo and Shiabu and finally Old Fadama with the fewest drains per square kilometer. Calculated drain density was consistent with how frequently drains were reported near households in the household survey (Table 3). In Alajo, Bukom, and Shiabu, drain construction was primarily carried out by the city; however, in Old Fadama, all but one drain was ecologically formed or constructed by citizens. Drain size was generally a reflection of construction. Drains built by the city were typically medium in size and deep, while drains that were ecologically formed tend to be wider and shallow. As such, over 50% of the drains present in Alajo, Bukom, and Shiabu were medium in size. Extra-large drains that were originally rivers or lagoons bordered all neighborhoods except Bukom. Drain mapping revealed that, excluding these few extra-large drains that bordered the communities, drains rarely flowed between neighborhoods. Old Fadama had the largest percentage of drainage network with no cover; over half the network was completely uncovered.
