The investment will expand water supply by 40,000 m3 (cubic metre) per day by constructing a new supply intake on the Rewa River with associated water treatment plant, pumping station, reservoirs and transmission mains to connect to the existing distribution system.

A 10ML (mega litre) water treatment plant reservoir will be constructed with 26km of trunk main of piping to be done.

The wastewater network will be rehabilitated and expanded by:

(i) increasing the wastewater capacity at Kinoya by 164 per cent to approximately 277,000 person equivalent;

(ii) upgrading 31 existing wastewater pumping stations;

(iii) upgrading of about 18 km of wastewater trunk mains to increase carrying capacity;

(iv) relining 13 km of wastewater trunk mains; and

(v) extending the wastewater network to service an additional 15 per cent of households (approximately 4500 existing lots in backlog areas) currently using on-site septic tanks.

WAF management and sustainable service delivery capacity improved. Project management and capacity development support will be provided by ADB to support WAF in the implementation of the water demand management amongst other areas of focus. Implementation Period.

The project is expected to be implemented over 60 months, from August 2017 to December 2022.
