This project will rehabilitate the water distribution network across Albania to bring water quality up to WHO standards. The bulk of the work will take place in the municipalities of Durres, Fier, Lezhe and Saranda, areas experiencing the most acute water shortages and will include:

supply and installation of distribution piping, fittings, materials and spare parts
carrying out of on-site repairs of any visible leaks in the distribution network
installation of purification chlorinators
repair/reconstruction of wells, reservoirs, central pumping stations and transmission mains

Once completed, some 1.3 million people in 11 cities will have access to a safe, consistent supply of drinking water.
