Project 21-1951

Snelgrove Elevated Tank decommissioning update

This project is for construction work to demolish the Snelgrove Elevated Water Tank located just south of Mayfield Road off Cresthaven Road.

Background

The Elevated Tank was expected to be taken out of service before 2020 once the Victoria Reservoir and feedermain were constructed. However, when the reservoir work was deferred, the tank decommissioning was also deferred, and over time the Snelgrove Elevated Tank appearance worsened.
