Turkey: Beytahtı drinking water project
The
project led to the construction of a new drinking water network line,
which will be resistant to potential earthquakes taking place in the
region and be sufficient for the population until 2037.
The aim of the EU-funded Beytahtı drinking water project, which takes its name from the water network that supplies water to most parts of the Erzincan Municipality, is to provide healthy water with minimal administrative costs to the people living in the area. The Beytahtı Drinking Water Project in Erzincan Municipality is one of the successful projects implemented under the small scale infrastructure grant component. The project focuses on key objectives such as eliminating regional disparities, protecting public health and safety, harmonising economic and social policies, increasing living standards and addressing urban problems.
The project led to the construction of a new drinking water network line, which will be resistant to potential earthquakes taking place in the region and be sufficient for the population until 2037.
The network is expected to produce healthy drinking water for a total of 250,000 inhabitants.
