How long and how wide will the pipeline route be?
While the exact route has not been finalized, the pipeline will extend approximately 10 miles from the Western Wake Water Reclamation Facility site to the Cape Fear River discharge point. While the construction corridor width is still in the planning and design phase and may vary depending upon the proximity to other surface features such as roads, railroads, and utility lines, the width of the construction corridor is currently anticipated to be 50-feet in most locations. Once construction is complete, at least 30-foot of access and maintenance corridor is anticipated to allow sufficient space for access and maintenance of the pipeline.
