Building a strong Canada starts with investing in the modern and reliable infrastructure that makes it possible to increase housing supply and create resilient communities.
The Build Communities Strong Fund is investing $51 billion in a wide range of infrastructure projects across the country that support economic prosperity, housing, sport, education, health, transit, and climate adaptation.
To that end, the Federal government invests up to $3.8 million in the William Street Sanitary Pumping Station Expansion project through the Direct Delivery stream of the Build Communities Strong Fund.
The project will upgrade wastewater infrastructure serving the communities of Ailsa Craig and Nairn to address population growth, aging facilities, and increased demand on existing systems. The upgrades include improvements to the William Street pumping station, headworks building, force main, and Ailsa Craig wastewater treatment plant.
Once completed, the project will increase wastewater capacity, support planned residential growth, ensure compliance with environmental requirements, and provide reliable infrastructure to meet the long-term needs of the communities.
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.
