Cecil Hills - continuing night work on Cowpasture Road

We have been working at night on Cowpasture Road to install a water main within the median strip. Due to preparation work required for the connection, we still need to continue work at night from Monday 18 July. Work will take place over five night shifts a week between 8.30pm to 5am, Sunday to Friday, with two nights respite during the week. We anticipate completing this work by 30 September 2022, weather permitting.

The following activities will be undertaken:

  • excavation of the median
  • construction of concrete reinforcement to support the water main
  • welding
  • connecting the water main to the network in two locations
  • restoration of the Cowpasture Road median.

In the week leading up to each connection, we will work six night shifts, 8.30pm to 5am Sunday to Friday.

What you need to know

There will be no interruptions to your water service during this work.

We’ll do everything we can to keep noise to a minimum including where possible loading materials during the day shift, using noise blankets to enclose our work area and completing the noisiest activities at the beginning of a shift.


The health and wellbeing of Sydney Water crews are our top priority. All crews are adhering to testing, social distancing, and mask wearing requirements.

We know our work can be disruptive, so we’ll make every effort to reduce any impact this work may have on you. Thank you for your cooperation during this essential work.
