About this project

The VPA is the expansion of the City of Arusha’s water supply network where the Dutch water operator VEI is assisting the Arusha Urban Water Supply and Sanitation Authority [AUWSA] with the implementation. The objective of the project is to improve the livelihood of nearly 20,000 people by increasing the number of households connected to the main, thus improving the access to clean water. The distribution network is extended to the following 7 wards: Unga-Limited; Daraja II; Sokoni I; Elerai; Murieti; Sombetini; and Ngarenaro. These wards have been selected by the project proponent (VEI), in collaboration with AUWSA, determined on a pre-defined "needs"-basis.
