Nearly a kilometre of pipe running beneath King's Inch Road has been relined, creating a new pipe within the existing one.
Robert Archer, Scottish Water Alliance Manager, stated that this section had experienced significant issues with bursts in recent years.
He emphasised that the project aimed to improve resilience, provide peace of mind for customers, and protect the environment.
The first phase involved setting up a temporary overland pipeline to divert waste water while the underground pipe was relined.

The second phase of the project will now begin, focusing on relining the rising main between Ferry Road and the pumping station in Renfrew.
This phase is expected to last approximately 10 months.
Robert Archer added: "Scottish Water continues to invest huge amounts of customers' money - £2.7billion over the past ten years – to repair and replace assets while addressing increasing demand and climate change.
"Our work would be significantly harder were it not for the support and co-operation of the communities we serve.
"I would like to thank customers and stakeholders for their patience and understanding so far and look forward to working with them again as we deliver the remainder of this much needed project."
The project is being managed and delivered by Scottish Water's alliance partner Caledonia Water Alliance and their specialist contractor Environmental Techniques.
CWA Communications Manager Paul Milligan said: "We have done all that we can to keep customers fully informed and listen to their concerns.
"The next phase of the project will bring further challenges but we are committed to doing everything we can to minimise their impact and complete the necessary works as quickly as possible."
