Replacement new installation potable water main line
Subsection HDD method

As part of extensive renovation measures, the Halberstadt public utility company is replacing the cast iron pipes of its drinking water supply, some of which date back to the 19th century. Among other things, Gerodur PE 100 drinking water pipes are used, which have a co-extruded outer layer for colour coding. The undercrossing of the foundations of the Goldbach Bridge under narrow inner-city conditions represents a great challenge for the public utility company, which, however, is carried out in a time-, space- and cost-saving manner with the laying of a GEROfit^® NEXUS pipe using the HDD HDD method. The locatability of the NEXUS pipe is an additional benefit for the municipal utilities because the underground route can be precisely located and documented.
