On Thursday 5 February we’re completing water main repair works on McIvor Road, Bendigo between 10am and 2pm.
Works will result in a planned 4 hour water supply interruption for some customers in the area - impacted customers will be notified directly.
The area affected is along Lyttleton Terrace and the section of McIvor Highway until Abbott Street, Bendigo.
We’ll complete these works as quickly as possible to minimise any interruption time.
| Your stop tap |
Before the works, we strongly recommend you turn your stop tap off at your water meter. Once your interruption time ends, you can turn your stop tap back on. |
| What if I can’t find my stop tap or turn it off? | If you can’t turn your stop tap off, that’s ok, you can leave it on, however please do not use any water during your interruption time. If your stop tap is left on, you may notice discoloured water or air in your pipes for a short period after the works. Running your tap for a few minutes should clear this. |
| During the works | We recommend you store enough water for your household to use during the interruption. When your water is off, your toilet cistern won’t refill after you flush, so you may want to fill a bucket with water which can be tipped into your toilet. |
| Water quality | These works can cause temporary changes to the look of your drinking water. If this occurs, run your taps until the water runs clear. If problems persist, please contact us. Your water remains safe to drink. |
We thank you for your patience during these works.
