Construction of water and sewer networks, including 30 waterborne precast toilets, at Enkanini Informal Settlement in Kayamandi, Stellenbosch. Requires civil engineering contractors experienced in municipal basic services infrastructure.
Stellenbosch Municipality has issued tender BSM 28/27 for the construction of basic services infrastructure at the Enkanini Informal Settlement in Kayamandi, Stellenbosch, Western Cape. The project covers the installation of water reticulation networks, sewer reticulation networks, and the supply and installation of 30 waterborne precast toilets. These works form part of the municipality's programme to improve sanitation and access to clean water for residents of informal settlements, contributing to public health, dignity, and the progressive upgrading of informal areas.
The scope of work is expected to include site establishment, excavation and trenching, laying of water mains and sewer pipes, installation of connections, construction of manholes and related appurtenances, supply and installation of precast waterborne toilet units, and connection to the existing municipal infrastructure. Contractors will be required to comply with the Occupational Health and Safety Act, relevant SANS and municipal engineering standards, and applicable environmental management requirements. Community liaison and minimising disruption to residents are likely to be important considerations given the nature of the settlement.
