Jones Street Pump Station

Jones Street Pump Station

The existing Jones Street Pump Station was constructed in 1953 and conveys flow beneath the Tennessee River through a 24-inch diameter flexible joint iron pipe. Knoxville Utilities Board (KUB) has deemed the pump station is scheduled for a capital upgrade after a routine evaluation of its’ life cycle, due to its’ limited capacity and age.
