Non-conductive GRP pipes near magnetic field created by the railway track in Bilinia
The extension project was co-financed by the EU program ISPA and involved the reconstruction of a part of the existing DN 600 potable water main running along the same railway track and from the highway to the river Bilina. All in all 5.7 km of HOBAS CC-GRP WaterLine® Systems DN 500, PN 16, SN 10000 were utilized for the project that was completed in 2006.Between Libesice u Zelenic and the Ledvice power plant, the line passes beneath roads, along the river Bilina, beneath a camping site, a public pool, a sports ground, gardens and green space until it finally reaches the wall of the trained river. From here on the original steel pipe on suspensions was preserved and the protective pipe around it was exchanged for HOBAS Pipes. The line continues through green space, roads and the train station and ends in a shaft. The section between the station and another shaft, which also connects to the Chlum water reservoir, was already reconstructed in 1999 and reconstruction works could be taken up from that point ending at Ledvice power plant.
