About the project
The Lower Sarcee Feedermain project constructed a new 6 km feedermain that provides safe, clean and reliable drinking water to new and existing communities in Southwest Calgary.
A feedermain is a large-diameter pipe that conveys potable water from one reservoir or pumping station to another. The size of pipe used in this project is 1050mm diameter.
The Lower Sarcee Feedermain runs along James McKevitt Road SW from 162 Avenue SW to the Southwest Calgary Ring Road corridor, east along the corridor to Sheriff King Street SW and then south along Sheriff King Street SW to 210 Avenue SW.
Project benefits
- Provides a safe, reliable water supply to new communities in southwest Calgary.
