Tampa water infrastructure project reaches 90% completion
(UI) – According to BayNews9.com, the city of Tampa has made progress on its Virginia Park project, which sees the complete replacement of aging underground water pipelines. The work in Virginia Park is part of the greater Tampa Neighborhood Design Build Project, a $92 million investment to improve infrastructure across the city.
Upon completion, contractors will have replaced over 20,000 ft of aging pipelines, some of which are over a century old. The work will be accomplished through pipe-bursting and horizontal directional drilling processes, BayNews9.com reported.
Tampa residents will enjoy improved water quality and pressure once the upgrades have been completed. The Virginia Park project is already 90% complete, with a final completion date set for February 2024.
