The Ettampitiya Water Supply Project has been successfully completed, incorporating all critical infrastructure components required for sustainable water management and distribution. The project scope included the construction of an intake structure and a water treatment plant (WTP) for the systematic processing and purification of raw water. A 600 m³ capacity clear water tank was constructed to store treated water, supported by a chemical house for treatment operations. To ensure effective water conveyance, pump houses were erected at key locations, supplemented by ground reservoirs with storage capacities of 225 m³ and 800 m³. In addition, booster pumps were installed to maintain adequate pressure and flow across the distribution system, guaranteeing reliable service delivery to end users.

The project also comprised the construction of caretaker quarters and office buildings, providing essential facilities for operational staff and administrative management. Extensive work was carried out for the laying of raw gravity mains and treated water pumping mains, which form the backbone of the supply network. The distribution system was carefully designed and executed to ensure that treated water is delivered efficiently and uniformly to all target areas. Complementary civil works were undertaken to enhance the overall durability and long-term sustainability of the water supply scheme.

The successful completion of the Ettampitiya Water Supply Project marks a significant step forward in improving water security, public health, and community welfare in the Ettampitiya region. The integrated design and construction approach has resulted in a robust, reliable, and future-ready water supply infrastructure that will serve the population for decades to come.
