Project update - April 2025

We’re making strong progress across the project and are excited to share some key updates:

• Pipe Installation: So far, 7,900 metres of pipe have been installed – that’s 77% of the total pipeline work completed.

• Maintenance holes: We have constructed 52 maintenance holes, representing 60% of the overall total.

Lot A – New water main along Bong Bong Road

Work on installing a new water main is now more than halfway done. We’re on track to finish the main installation by the end of May, with the remaining connections to follow shortly after.

Lot B – Reed Park and Surrounding Areas

Restoration is now underway in Reed Park, with most of the major pipe laying in Lot B expected to be finished within the next few months, including at Mullet Creek (pictured). Tunnelling will continue across different areas of the project for approximately five more months. Once pipe laying wraps up, our attention will turn to finishing the remaining maintenance holes, completing tunnel connections and restoring areas impacted by our work.

Lot C – Gravity Main and Pumping station upgrade

• Gravity Main: The final maintenance holes are now being installed, with final pipe connections and restoration work to follow soon after.

• Pumping station upgrade: Work to upgrade the pumping station on the corner of Bridgewater Drive and Riverpark Way in Horsley is progressing well. The new switch room building is currently under construction and taking shape on site.

Thanks again to the community for your patience and understanding as we continue to make progress on this important project. More updates to come soon!
