Background

The existing sanitary main along 16 Avenue has reached its maximum available flow capacity. Therefore, the pipe capacity needs to be increased to meet future demands.

About the Project

The City of Delta will be installing a new 575mm diameter PVC sanitary main along 16 Avenue from 56 Street to Gillespie Road. The new sewer main has been designed for a 75-year service life and is sized to accommodate future growth in Tsawwassen.

Currently, we are in the Tendering stage of the project. We aim to commence construction in Spring 2024, once a Contractor is selected.

Archaeology

The new sanitary main alignment is within a known archaeological site. Construction may progress at a reduced rate to ensure the requirements set by the Archaeology Branch and the First Nations are being properly followed. Archaeologists and First Nations representatives will be present on-site to monitor, investigate, and inspect the sanitary main installation.

Impact to Residents

Access for residents and businesses will be maintained at all times. With work of this nature, some inconvenience will be unavoidable. We ask for your patience and cooperation during construction.

Traffic

Single lane alternating traffic will be maintained during construction hours. Two-way traffic will be maintained outside regular construction hours. Street parking will be restricted within the work zone.
