Athlone is revamping its water infrastructure by replacing outdated water mains with new uPVC pipes as part of its yearly pipe replacement program. The project aims to provide a reliable water supply in the long term and has allocated a significant amount of funds for water and sewer pipe replacement programs. Upgrades to the pipes in the Bridgetown suburb involve replacing outdated, fibre cement water mains with new 110mm diameter pipes that conform to compliance standards set by the South African Bureau of Standards. The initiative showcases the city’s commitment to sustainable development and the wellbeing of its citizens.
