MANILA, Philippines – Manila Water expands its sewer network in Mandaluyong with the completion of its Mandaluyong West–San Juan Sewer Network Package 2A-1 (MandaWest Package 2A-1).

Manila Water’s MandaWest Package 2A-1 is vital to the company’s P7.4-billion Mandaluyong West–San Juan and South Quezon City Sewerage Network Project (MandaWest Sewer Network Project). By 2037, this massive sewage infrastructure will have a 53-kilometer sewer network connected to a 60 million liter per day (MLD) sewage treatment plant (expandable to 120 MLD) and will benefit over 700,000 customers in Mandaluyong, San Juan, and Quezon City.

Part of the network segment is the construction of the P103.6-million MandaWest Package 2A1, which included the laying of 520 linear meters of 900mm-diameter force main pipeline running along Ilino Cruz, C. Dela Cruz, Catacutan, and J.P. Rizal Streets in Barangay Vergara, Mandaluyong City.

“Milestones in our sewer network expansion, such as the completed MandaWest Package 2A-1, bring us closer to our goal of providing a more sustainable wastewater and sanitation service to our customers.,” Manila Water Communication Affairs Group Director Jeric Sevilla said.

By ensuring that customer wastewater is appropriately collected and processed before being released into waterways, Manila Water continues to support government’s sustainability initiatives such as the Clean Water Act and the Supreme Court Mandamus for the Rehabilitation and Protection of Manila Bay.
