The original cast iron water main within the project area was installed in 1958. It has suffered repeated breaks over the years and has exceeded its useful life.
SPRWS crews along with Quam Construction Co. will replace the existing 6” cast iron water main with a combination of 6” and 8” HDPE pipe via a trenchless method called pipe bursting.
