To date, the project has accumulated 513,707 manhours and is currently employing 211 personnel across various disciplines.  As the project advances into subsequent phases, workforce numbers are expected to increase in the coming months to meet construction demands. A total of 1,254.91 linear metres of pipe for storm drainage was installed across the project area this spring.
