Canada Boosts Saanich Sewer Infrastructure

Housing, Infrastructure and Communities Canada

Building a strong Canada starts with investing in the infrastructure that supports more housing and creates stronger communities.

The Build Communities Strong Fund is investing $51 billion in infrastructure projects across the country that support economic prosperity, housing, sport, education, health, transit, and climate adaptation.

To that end, the federal government is investing more than $1.2 million in the Brett Sewer Lift Station and Forcemain upgrade project in the District of Saanich through the Direct Delivery stream of the Build Communities Strong Fund.

The project includes both planning and capital components. The funding will support the development of a detailed design, work to decommission the existing lift station, and the construction of a modern replacement facility.

Modernizing the sewer system will increase capacity, make it run more efficiently, lower emissions, and reduce the risk of service disruptions and environmental contamination. It will also support the District of Saanich's growth and ensure there's capacity for future housing development in the Brett sewer service area.

The Build Communities Strong Fund is a cornerstone of the Government of Canada's plan to build the infrastructure needed to build Canada strong - today and for generations to come.
