Tender awarded for wastewater treatment plant in Arthur

Wellington North has awarded the tender for the upgrade to the Arthur Village wastewater treatment plant.

Wellington Construction Contractors of Teviotdale was the lowest price at $6.5 million. The price came in well below the budgeted estimate of $8.5 million.

Mayor Andy Lennox said he is delighted the project is going forward, at a good price and by a Wellington County company.  Construction is expected to start soon.

Arthur Village has had a building freeze for several years now as the treatment plant is operating at capacity.
