We’re upgrading several sewer pump stations throughout the city. These stations have reached the end of their service life and will be replaced with larger-capacity facilities.
The station upgrades will:
- Ensure the resilience of this essential infrastructure
- Minimize the risk of sewage spills into sensitive waterways
- Provide additional amenities where possible
- Help to serve growing neighbourhoods

Various locations throughout the city
Dunbar pump station
We’re constructing a new, above-ground pump station in the southeast corner of Musqueam Park, on the north side of 49th Avenue. This pump station will replace the existing pump station, which has reached the end of its useful service life.
The new pump station will meet new safety requirements and features an earthquake-resilient design with protection against rising sea levels.
Work began in early 2025 and is expected to be completed by summer 2026. This work will not impact access to the park or use of park amenities.
