Project	Description	Amount (2024)
Infrastructure
Bank Street Canal Bridge	Bridge renewal work.	$1,665,000
Hurdman Bridge Pumping Station Renewal	The Hurdman Bridge Drinking Water Pump Station is located just north of the Hurdman Transit Station, adjacent to the CN/CP rail line, between Riverside Drive and the Rideau River. Constructed in the early 1970s, the existing Hurdman PS is used to boost water from Zone 1 W to eastern water zones of the City. Due to age, much of the equipment at the Hurdman Bridge Pumping Station is obsolete or at the end of its useful life. The intent of this project is to refurbish the entire station and site to bring it up to current City Standards, meet current and future pumping demands and implement a standby power system at the station. Yard configuration, building repairs and refurbishment, and replacement of the entire electrical distribution system are required and there is a need to increase water transfer pumping capacity for Zone 2C. In addition, the standby power system increases the resiliency to extended power outages. Project design is underway, funding is for construction top-up. Completion: 2024	$10,600,000
