The Romans built sewers by digging canals and and reinforcing them and covering them with stone.
Water was moved along aqueducts. Water was moved by gravity in conduits of stone, brick or concrete built with a slight gradient. Aqueducts were frequently underground. To pass through valleys or areas with different altitudes, the conduit was on bridgework. High bridgeworks were sometimes built with two or three rows of arches built on top of each other.
The city of Rome had 11 aqueducts which brought water from the nearby mountains. Their total length was 475 kilometers. The shortest one was the Aqua Appia, 16,56 km long and the longest one was the Aqua Marcia, 91.42 km.
