PROJECT:
UPGRADING OF THE INDUSTRIAL WATER PIPELINE – DENNEOORD

DESCRIPTION:
The existing 300mm Ø bulk pipeline reached the end of its design life and the durability of the
pipeline was a concern. The scope of work consists of the construction of a new 728m long,
315mm diameter uPVC class 9 water pipeline. The section of pipeline to be realigned starts at
the corner of 8th and 9th Avenues, follows Eiland Road, and ends in St Pauls Street.
The Municipality terminated the original Contractor appointment, and a new Contractor will
be appointed to complete the project.
