Metro Manila Water Pipe Installation Project
The water supply and sewerage works in Metro Manila are outsourced to private companies. The construction of water supply and sewerage pipes was originally designed to be an open-cut method, but due to recent traffic conditions in Manila, the construction was changed to a trenchless method because of the possibility of causing further traffic congestion. Since the trenchless method can minimize the negative impact on traffic, the pipe jacking method will likely become the mainstream for water supply and sewerage works in the future.
