Replacement pipes arrive in Calgary to help in water main repairs

City of Calgary confirms two massive replacement pipes from San Diego have arrived in the city to ultimately be used in the ongoing repair work on a water main that broke earlier this month.

They’re being prepared for installation, which includes sandblasting and applying epoxy.

Once that is complete, the pipes will be moved to the worksite on 16th Avenue N.W.

The two pipes will help crews repair five “hotspot” sections where structural deficiencies were found beyond the major break zone.

The original broken pipe has been repaired and crews are filling in the hole.
