Lawrence Looks Ahead
For the first phase of a new, 6 mi long water transmission main, the City of Lawrence, Kansas, needed to construct a 36 in. diameter pipeline that would pass beneath a river, a major levee, two rail lines, and a park. By selecting fusible polyvinyl chloride pipe and using horizontal directional drilling to install nearly two-thirds of the initial part of the line, which is 1.25 mi long, the project team overcame several challenges, including those related to corrosion, site access, and maintenance.
