On August 31st local time, with the installation and testing of the last pump house completed, the third section of the 140-kilometer municipal water supply and drainage pipeline in Zambia, which was constructed by UNIK Construction, was successfully completed! Subsequently, it entered the later stage of maintenance and was successfully delivered to the citizens of the capital city a few days ago, with the whole line put into use!

The CP3 section of the sewerage project located in the urban area of Zambia capital city, which benefits approximately 10,000 surrounding households, is a large-scale municipal livelihood improvement project.

The signing of the first contract in Zambia kicked off a series of municipal projects.

The project undertaken by UNIK is located in the old urban area of Lusaka, with a dense population, narrow construction area, and complex underground pipelines. The underground soil is mostly clay structure, and the groundwater level is abundant. Inorder to prevent landslides, the project team requires appropriate excavation support for excavation depths exceeding 1.5 meters. These measures place higher requirements on construction safety, increase construction difficulty, and reduce construction efficiency.

All staff of UNIK CP3 Project Department uphold a scientifically rigorous attitude, and under the leadership of Project Manager Zhang Jian and the management team, they coordinate the construction processes of each section, rationally allocate resources such as personnel, materials, and machinery, strictly control quality, and promote the project with high quality and quantity.

Thanks to the years of deep experience in the field of water supply and drainage in Zambia, the project was not only completed smoothly as scheduled, but also received recognition from the owner and 100% praise from residents along the way.

On August 31, 2023, the Mtendere pump house successfully passed the joint acceptance inspection by the three parties, marking the completion of the CP3 project and representing our satisfactory answer to the people of Zambia's capital city (Lusaka).

To date, UNIK has completed a total of 578 kilometers of water supply pipelines and 242 kilometers of drainage pipelines in the field of water supply and drainage construction in Zambia.
