​The Public Works Authority ‘Ashghal’ announced completion of all works related to constructing 14-km-long Treated Sewage Effluent (TSE) lines, which aim at constructing a TSE network to irrigate green areas in 5 areas west of Doha including Muaither, Al Wajba, Al Mearad, Rawdat Abal Heeran and Al Sailiya.

Eng. Mohamed Massoud Al Ateeq, project engineer in the Roads Projects Department, pointed out that the scope of works included constructing a TSE Network covering the needs of 5 areas west of Doha through extending new pipelines on Muaither North Street, Al Sedaira Street, Gheenat Fuwairit Street, Jassim bin Ali Street, Rawdat Al Naisar and then towards Al Wajba area and Rawdat Abal Heeran areas as this newly constructed network collects all treated sewage effluent water and distributes it to irrigate the green areas, parks and landscapes alongside the streets to ensure a sustainable exploitation of the treated effluent to increase the green space in the area.

Eng. Al Ateeq then added that “The upgrade of the Treated Sewage Effluent Network serves several areas witnessing a significant urban growth as it provides and connects TSE lines of other existing projects in the area. It also minimizes the pressure on local water resources including water desalination and groundwater well drilling.” He also explained that this project comes as part of Ashghal’s commitment to encourage sustainability and recycling to exploit the treated sewage effluent. It is worth noting that the main TSE lines runs at a depth of approximately 3.5 and 5.5 meters’ underground.
