Durant Road 36-inch Transmission Main

Existing infrastructure found in this area is undersized and will be replaced and upgraded.

A new 36-inch water transmission main was recommended in the 2016 Water System Master Plan, to provide redundancy and additional capacity to the areas east of Capital Blvd. The new main will extend from the EM Johnson Water Treatment Plant to Capital Blvd.

Following easement acquisition and consultant selection, design should take 18 months. Construction should take 12 months.
