"headline": "Strange Street Water Supply System",
"text": "
The Strange Street Pumping Station, originally constructed in 1920, received treated groundwater from several wells throughout Kitchener and Waterloo and supplied drinking water to the downtown distribution system. Historically, the water supply has elevated levels of iron and manganese, which have been typically removed for taste and odor concerns. In 2019, a new health-based limit for manganese was set by Health Canada, and the pumping station needed to adapt.
The Region of Waterloo engaged our team to provide detailed design, site inspection, and construction administration for a new greensand plant. An innovative well-blending model targeting consistent influent water quality was developed. The installation of the watermain included a mix of trenchless and open cut techniques and used trenchless drilling below an active light rail transit (LRT)—a first for the region.
As a result of our work, the Strange Street Pumping Station is now an upgraded, centralized facility that increases operational ease, compliance oversight, and treatment capability. It strengthens the Region’s ability to provide reliable, clean, and safe drinking water to the residents of Kitchener-Waterloo.
