2024 Sewer Relining Program

The City of Stratford is planning to rehabilitate 1.6km of storm and sanitary sewers at various locations throughout Stratford. The sewers will be rehabilitated using a “No-Dig” sewer lining method. This method results in very few, if any, excavations required to complete this work.

Sewer lining is a cost-effective rehabilitation option that allows a plastic like liner to be installed inside the existing pipe. The liner technology creates a new thin and structurally sound pipe that does not impact flow. This technology allows for leaks in the sewer to addressed, which in turn helps reduce the City’s Infiltration and Inflow (I/I) problem. This innovative technology substantially reduces costs and greenhouse gas emissions by avoiding open excavation.
