PWS recently completed the Churchill Park Sewer Pump Station Renewal Project, a design and construct project delivered in partnership with IPD Consulting.
Despite challenging ground conditions, including contaminated material, groundwater and unstable soils, the project was successfully delivered through careful planning and ex*****on.
Key aspects of the works included the installation of screw piles to provide a stable foundation and resist groundwater buoyancy forces, the installation of approximately 165 metres of HDPE pipeline, the supply and installation of all pumping, electrical and control equipment, testing and commissioning of the new pump station, hydrostatic testing of both the wet well and associated pipework, and the successful management of the cutover into the new wastewater infrastructure with minimal disruption to the existing network.
The upgraded pump station is now capable of supporting peak event loads of up to 4,000 people, providing reliable wastewater infrastructure for the local community well into the future.
A big thank you to our project partners:
* IPD Consulting * Alpha Electrics & Water * Bridgepro Engineering * Tas Concrete Products
Another quality infrastructure project delivered through effective planning, technical expertise and strong teamwork.
