November 25, 2024 - Water Distribution Capacity Analysis and Feasibility Study

The City of Brandon, in collaboration with AECOM Canada Ltd., is conducting a comprehensive Water Distribution Capacity Analysis and Feasibility Study to support growth and evaluate the City’s water distribution system.

The primary objective of the project is to assess the system’s capacity to meet the current and future needs of neighbourhoods, with a particular focus on the southwest and southeast areas (South Growth Area).

The project scope includes:

• Reviewing and upgrading the city-wide water distribution system (WDS) hydraulic model, with a focus on calibration using field data.
• Conducting a Fire Flow Analysis to identify potential system vulnerabilities and propose mitigative measures to enhance reliability and fire safety.
• Performing a Capacity and Growth Analysis to determine necessary infrastructure and operational improvements to support ongoing and future development in the South Growth Area.

The study emphasizes sustainable infrastructure planning to address urban growth while ensuring service reliability. The project is scheduled for completion by Summer 2025.
