Biggest water project
Print Edition
The Qiandao Lake water resources project, the biggest water project under construction in Zhejiang Province, is scheduled to finish in June 2019.
Once completion, the lake will be able to supply water to more than 8 million people in urban Hangzhou and nearby areas. So far, 4.51 billion yuan (US$683 million) has already been invested in the project, 46.9 percent of the total planned investment.
More than 3,000 workers have dug 106 kilometers of channels and tunnels. The total length of the channels and tunnels extends to 113 kilometers from Xianlin Reservoir in Hangzhou to Qiandao Lake in Chun’an.
Every year a total of 978 million cubic meters of water will be pumped from the lake to Xianlin Reservoir. From there the water will be divided into two — one goes to Binjiang and Xiaoshan districts, and another goes to downtown and Yuhang District.
The water mouth of the project, at Jinzhukou of Qiandao Lake where there are no villagers or tourists, is also expected to be completed in June, 2019.
