Mannofield Water Treatment Works upgrade

What we are doing?

Scottish Water is investing in the water infrastructure in Aberdeen with a £8M upgrade to the existing Mannofield Water Treatment Works (WTW). This work involves the construction of a new mixer chamber along with associated pipework, as well as new mechanical and electrical equipment to be installed within the existing building. This will improve the resilience and function of the treatment works ensuring we can supply fresh clear drinking water into the future.

When are we doing it?

Our main work will be ongoing until July 2024, this work includes; construction of the mixer chamber, demolition works within the existing Scottish Water building, deep excavations, diverting existing pipes and services as well as installing new pipework.

We will also be carrying out filter repair works within the existing Scottish Water building from March 2024 through to Sept 2025. As this work is taking place within the Scottish Water building, there will be minimal impact and noise.

What happens next?

• You may hear an increase in noise while we carry out the excavations.

• You may see an increase in construction traffic during this time.

• All wagon drivers have been briefed on the correct access route and speed limits to be adhered to.

• There will be no weekend working.

• There will be no machinery working before 8am and work will cease at 5.30pm daily.
