Project Background:

Mombasa is the second largest city in Kenya and the largest seaport on the East African Coast.  The Mombasa and Coastal Water Supply System serves a population of almost 2,000,000 people and has a supply area of 5,700 km2.  The main engineering design components of this project are listed below:

Provision of new distribution pipework:  450km, 50m - 600mm dia.

Renewal and Rehabilitation:  20km pipework, 800 appurtenances, 900 chamber, 1300 indicator posts.

Pump stations: 5 nr.

Reservoirs and Break Pressure Tanks: 15nr; 50m3 to 5000m3 capacity.

Building and Ancillary works.

Detailed Engineering Designs have been prepared for Phased Development with the following horizons:  Immediate, Year  2005, Year 2010, and Year 2020.
