The work also included the connection of the new pipeline to
the existing bulk supply system, as well as pressure testing,
sterilising, scouring and commissioning of the completed pipeline.
The pipeline had to be installed along the back or side boundaries
of a number of existing properties as result of a lack of space
to accommodate the pipeline within the street reserve. The project
required intensive liasion with each and every owner whose property
was affected by the pipline route. This was achieved through means
of regular contact , correspondence and interest group meetings.
Where possible, the route was revised so as to minimise the impact
on affected properties.
