Renovation of Mbrostar water supply

When host communities’ vital water supply was in serious need of rehabilitation, TAP was there to help. Mbrostar is a group of villages (Petove, Makaj, Verri, Kallm, Mojalli) in Albania’s Fier municipality. Its ageing water system was no longer meeting the needs of the area’s 10,500 residents.

556,500 € investment

TAP agreed to support its renovation. Albstar, an Albanian construction company was engaged to implement the project, supervised by Abkons, TAP’s implementation partner for managing SEI infrastructure projects in Albania.

Over a six-month period, employing some 50 people, two new wells were opened and water tanks, service, disinfection and equipment rooms rebuilt. New high-density polyethylene pipework was installed to replace the deteriorated steel water supply line. The works were completed in March 2018.
