Calgary’s Water Main Upgrade On Track

Calgary’s Bearspaw South Feeder Main project is racing ahead—on schedule to finish by end of 2026, faster than usual for such a massive upgrade. After two major pipe breaks, the city’s investing $439 million to reinforce the aging line and install a brand-new steel pipe alongside it. Tunneling under major roads is already halfway done, with two of five sections completed, while open-cut work has reopened roads. The new steel pipe is arriving soon, with first installations set for 34th Ave NW. Officials warn the old pipe could still fail before full replacement, requiring another shutdown this fall. But they’re confident this will be the final fix—with full service expected by year’s end. For updates, check the city’s website or call 311.
