Anacostia River Tunnel Project
Washington D.C.,
United States
- The 23-ft-diameter, 12,500-ft-long Anacostia River Tunnel is the second portion of DC Water’s 20-year Clean Rivers Project
- The tunnel is lined with six-segment pre-cast concrete rings, but the project’s six shafts, four diversion structures, and three adits are cast-in-place concrete

Impressions from the project process
For construction of the narrow, 100-ft-deep drop shaft at CSO 18, PERI provided a unique radial design using its CB Climbing Formwork and BR Platforms.
Adaptable forming and shoring systems facilitate shaft and diversion structure construction.
PERI designed a slab shoring system for placing the concrete roof slab of the Poplar Point Pumping Station, which had to be cast in place 90 to 100 ft above the tunnel invert.

PERI provided great versatility and repeatability for our Diversion Structure, which had many different elements and lift heights while being able to reuse and cycle material from the bottom to the top.
