Road Runoff Flooding in Karaoğlanoğlu: Lemon Park and Prestige Sitesi Case
When Water Comes From the Road, Not the Sky
In Karaoğlanoğlu, the recent rainfall revealed a familiar but often misunderstood pattern.
At Lemon Park Residences and Prestige Sitesi, water did not arrive from nearby streams or direct flooding.
It arrived from the road.
Surface runoff exceeded drainage capacity, crossed road levels, entered residential boundaries, and triggered a second, more alarming signal:
muddy water flowing back through taps and fountains.
This Was Not a Localized Flood
What happened at Lemon Park Residences and Prestige Sitesi was not a failure of the buildings themselves.
It was a system interaction problem.
- Road surface water accumulated faster than it could be discharged
- Drainage pressure reversed direction
- Sediment-laden water entered internal systems
When muddy water appears in fountains or taps, it is not a plumbing defect.
It is a pressure imbalance.
Why Road Runoff Is More Dangerous Than It Looks
Road runoff behaves differently from natural flooding:
- It carries sediment, oil residue, and fine debris
- It moves horizontally, not vertically
- It seeks the lowest resistance, not the nearest outlet
In Karaoğlanoğlu, especially near dense residential developments, roads often become temporary channels during intense rainfall.
Once pressure builds, water looks for escape points.
Sometimes those points are inside buildings.
Muddy Water Is a Warning, Not a Side Effect
When muddy water comes out of fixtures, it signals three things simultaneously:
- External water has entered a closed system
- Pressure exceeded designed flow direction
- Sediment traveled where clean water should remain isolated
This is not cosmetic damage.
It is a system breach indicator.
How CAN Sigorta Reads This Pattern
For CAN Sigorta, incidents like these are not treated as isolated claims.
They are pattern confirmations.
Similar observations have appeared across Karaoğlanoğlu in recent years:
- Road-level runoff entering residential parcels
- Reversed flow during peak rainfall minutes
- Sediment appearing in internal water points
This confirms a broader reality:
Modern residential sites are increasingly exposed
not to rivers or streams,
but to infrastructure pressure reversal.
Final Observation
At Lemon Park Residences and Prestige Sitesi, the water did not rise slowly.
It arrived sideways.
And when water comes from the road, carrying mud into clean systems, the message is clear:
The issue is not rain.
The issue is where the rain is forced to go.
For CAN Sigorta, this is not an anomaly.
It is another data point in a repeating sequence.
Because risk today does not always flood homes.
Sometimes, it flows back through the tap.
