Neuhemsbach municipality, renewal of water pipes in the course of road construction

The Enkenbach-Alsenborn municipal works department was replacing the drinking water pipes in the high street (L 393) in Neuhemsbach. The replacement was necessary because multiple defects had occurred in the existing asbestos cement pipes. The main pipe is the only supply line for the western side of the supply area (Heinzental, the Enkenbach-Alsenborn collective waste water treatment plant, the Neumühle agricultural research centre). In order to avoid the main supply line being out of operation, and to improve the water supply security to the westward municipalities, by-pass of the drinking water pipe was connected from the Mühlweg into the Schulstraße.
