The $US4.4 million pipe contract has been awarded to Insituform Technologies. The company will complete the work in 26 installations, using a close-fit polyethylene solution for water pipe renewal. Work began in late November 2008 and is expected to be completed in August 2009.
The City of Victoria has a history of promoting environmentally sound practices. In addition to Insituform’s minimally disruptive and environmentally friendly method of rehabilitating transmission mains, the city has also retained a professional arborist to help protect the trees on the job site.
