Situation

The City of Quinte West faced a critical issue with this water main located beneath the Trent River. The infrastructure, essential for the city's main water supply, showed signs of deterioration leading to both water loss and an infiltration of river water through leaks.

Recognizing the urgency and significance of this challenge, an emergency rehabilitation plan was initiated. The unique complexity of the situation made traditional rehabilitation technologies impractical.
