Description
Description | The Lift Station No. 1 and Sewage Forcemain Replacement Project in the City of Yellowknife, Northwest Territories involves complete replacement of Lift Station No. 1 and its accompanying sewage forcemain. Built in 1967, Lift Station No. 1 is the second largest in the city’s wastewater system and is now inadequate due to significant growth in population. The project will construct a new lift station on the same site, ensuring no service disruption, and replace 500 metres of sanitary sewage forcemain. The old lift station will be demolished once the new one is operational. The new facility will be designed to accommodate future population and housing developments for the next 50 or more years. This initiative aims to address current maintenance and safety concerns, enhance energy efficiency, and include a public charging station for electric vehicles. It also helps to spur housing developing, which is stagnant because of outdated infrastructure. |
