The Bogotà-Fucha-Tunjuelo Wastewater Interceptor is located between the Fucha River and the Tunjuelo River, stretching from East to West; it begins in the future La Maddalena reservoir and runs underground up to the Tunjuelo elevation station. It is 9.4km of length, with a 3.75m diameter, and it runs 15m underground with a 0.05% grade. The interceptor runs parallel to the Cundinamarca canal and the Bogotá River, from the mouth of the Fucha River, to its confluence with the Bogota River in Fontibon, to the confluence of the Tunjuelo River with the Bogota River in Bosa. The interceptor was completed in January 2010 and it is in operation since February 2010.
