The new Macaulay Point Pump Station pumps wastewater from western core area municipalities and the Esquimalt and Songhees Nations to the McLoughlin Point Wastewater Treatment Plant for tertiary treatment. The Macaulay Forcemain is the pipe that will connect the Macaulay Point Pump Station to the McLoughlin Point Wastewater Treatment Plant.
Kenaidan was awarded the design-build contract for the new pump station and headworks and the construction of a large diameter forcemain. The contract included the demolition of the existing pump station.
The forcemain was installed in segments to minimize impacts to residents and all road users. We completed the work within the existing Macaulay Point Pump Station site and road right-of-ways. The new pump station is aesthetically appealing and set further back from the waterfront than the pre-existing pump station, providing landscaped public space adjacent to the existing walkway.
