The design of the city is to provide potable water in all taps of the city which would be available on demand. Water from the Narmada canal is stored in an artificial reservoir called Samrudhdhi Sarovar(designed for 15 days drinking water storage) and then conveyed to water treatment plant and then distributed. Water pipeline trunk and secondary network is configured as a loop system.<ref>{{Cite web |title=Wastewater Recycling, Sewage Treatment {{!}} Waterfront Development |url=https://www.giftgujarat.in/water |access-date=2022-12-02 |website=www.giftgujarat.in}}</ref> | The design of the city is to provide potable water in all taps of the city which would be available on demand.

The highlight of the city is the Dedicated Utility Service Corridor which is an underground tunnel spread across the city which contains all the utility lines. The utility lines of power distribution, potable water, wastewater, gas, chilled water, ICT fibres and solid waste chute will be channelled through this underground tunnel. This makes it easier to operate and maintain these utility services unlike the conventional practise of digging streets regularly for maintenance of utility line.<ref>{{Cite web |title=Utility Tunnel {{!}} Water Treatment Plant {{!}} Fire Detection System |url=https://www.giftgujarat.in/utility-tunnel |access-date=2022-12-02 |website=www.giftgujarat.in}}</ref><ref>{{Cite web |date=2022-05-28 |title=Land to be acquired for utility tunnel in GIFT City |url=https://www.deshgujarat.com/2022/05/28/land-to-be-acquired-for-utility-tunnel-in-gift-city/ |access-date=2022-12-02 |website=DeshGujarat |language=en-US}}</ref> | The highlight of the city is the Dedicated Utility Service Corridor which is an underground tunnel spread across the city which contains all the utility lines.
