South Surrey Interceptor No. 2
Scope of Services
The project kicked off with BEL Contracting implementing several facilitating measures, which included the construction of temporary driveways for Panorama Place and the property at 15350 153a Street. Notably, these initial measures also involved the removal of trees and other hardscapes to clear the way for mainline construction. Electrical installations were another crucial aspect of the project’s scope. A dedicated electrical kiosk was set up, along with an antenna pole, both of which were intricately tied in with flow transducers. This level of detail was extended to the installation of conduits for BC Hydro, requiring rigorous coordination to ensure uninterrupted power services and to meet regulatory inspection criteria.
Post-construction restoration was another significant element of the project. Key milestones were achieved in terms of reinstating property access, predominantly focusing on 153a Street and the property at 15350 56 Avenue. Activities in this phase included road repaving, construction of curbs and gutters, line painting, and installation of road signage. At the 15350 56 Avenue property, a modular concrete block retaining wall was erected. Furthermore, landscape restoration work was performed across various sections of the project area, leaving a positive visual impact on the community.
Before declaring the project complete, BEL Contracting undertook the vital task of compiling an exhaustive asset inventory, which was supplemented by operational manuals and detailed technical data. This ensures that future maintenance and operational tasks can be carried out efficiently. To validate the robustness of the new installations, rigorous testing and commissioning processes were employed, guaranteeing that all components either met or exceeded the regulatory and operational standards.
Beyond the engineering and construction aspects, a strong emphasis was placed on risk management to ensure the safety and well-being of everyone involved. This multifaceted project was not merely aimed at improving the city’s sewer system, It was also designed to manage and mitigate a variety of construction risks, ensuring the safety and well-being of all involved.
