Project Overview

The West Riverside Reclaimed Water Main is part of a series of projects that will provide redundancy and reliability of service to reclaimed water customers in Austin. 

The project includes installation of approximately 2,800 feet of 24-inch pipeline from S 1st St to Lee Barton Dr. It will be installed mostly by conventional open trench, but about 650 feet will be installed via Horizontal Directional Drilling. The project will facilitate further expansion of the reclaimed system. Potential service connections to the new reclaimed water main includes Town Lake Metro Park at Auditorium Shores.
