To better adapt to the various overflowed person on foot streets, the city's legislature has built up a plan to empower people to move dryly about many areas of the city, by setting up temporary stages (passarelle) amidst real passerby walkways which are most subject to flooding, and linking them to many of the public transportation boat stops.

These stages make it conceivable to stroll without getting wet; however the walkways are tight, simply permitting single line in every direction.The flooding is for the most part linked to the lunar tidal level, in two about twelve hour cycles for every day (6 hours rising, 6 hours falling), implying that notwithstanding when flooding happens, it once in a while moderates or blocks foot traffic for more than a couple of hours only before the waters retreat again underneath walkway level. Most areas of the tidal pond city are over +100cm above ocean level, however some lower areas, for example, Saint Mark's Square, start flooding at levels of +80cm above sea level.
