The main objective of the Sewerage Board of Limassol – Amathus (SBLA) was the construction, of the stormwater drainage system of the Greater Limassol Area (1,261ha area).
The anti-flood works comprise 20,8 km of drainage system. The pipelines consisted of concrete pipes (D500-D1200) of 17.869 km length and box culverts (200 X 100 up to 320 X 200) of 3km length. Along the Lanitis avenue the box culverts were 2X2500X2000 – 1.910m.
The storm water drainage works comprised the construction of approximately 423 manholes, the connections to the existing drainage system, the construction of drainage gullies and associated pipes and the reinstatement of existing utilities.
A total network of 20,485m was examined. The total contract budget was 16,197,000.00 €.
Storm Drain Projects costing approximately €62 million were implemented during Phase 2b of the Board’s new in-vestment program. They included the following:
• Construction of anti-flood works in western Limassol to resolve the problem of flooding in the area.
• Construction of a storm drain network in densely populated areas of Limassol.
• Construction of three retention reservoirs as part of Limassol’s anti-flood measures.
The scope of the service consisted of:
– Review, validate and update the existing studies for the proposed stormwater drainage network including the bill of quantities
– Check the proposed design of stormwater drainage system to identify and resolve any utility conflicts es-pecially the conflicts concerning the house connections of the sewerage system.
– Prepare and submit the Traffic Management Plan that includes details of where and when works will be undertaken (Critical Path Analysis).
-Prepare Health and Safety Policy (Framework Directive) in accordance with the relevant Laws and Regu-lations of the Republic of Cyprus and SBLA Health and Safety Policy
-Assess the existing data regarding the Road Condition and conduct additional geological surveys, if need-ed.
-Evaluate the Hydraulic Capacity Analysis of the existing Stormwater Drainage System including the pro-posed system, by developing a model for various Return Periods.
– Prepare the Bidding Documents for the procurement of works
-Provide specifications and supplementary information on the works to be procured.
– Evaluate the bids submitted by the contractor and submit Tender Evaluation Report.
-Construction Supervision
– Project Management.
