800 Projects to Help Develop Tehran Water Supply Network

A total of 800 projects worth $450 million are underway to help develop the sprawling capital Tehran’s water supply grid, managing director of Tehran Province’s Water and Wastewater Company said.
“About 300 contractors are carrying out local initiatives in different counties, the most important of which is a water supply project in the city of Tehran, dubbed Tehran Water Ring,” Mohammad Reza Bakhtiari was also quoted as saying by the Energy Ministry’s news service.
The mega project has made 85% progress and is expected to become operational in March 2022, he added.
Work on Tehran Water Ring commenced in mid-2015 and is planned to extend over 180 kilometers of pipeline connecting seven water treatment facilities and ensure stable water quality and supply in the capital.
