Pipeline construction – Maiden Gully
- Maiden Gully
Work to install the Maiden Gully to Marong Pipeline continues near Edwards Road and Glenelg Drive in Maiden Gully.
As part of the next stage of construction of the Maiden Gully to Marong Pipeline, we are building a new water main both through the existing easement between Glenelg Drive and Edwards Road.
From Tuesday 10 February, works will start near the intersection of Smiths Road and Edwards Road, extending up the easement to Glenelg Drive. Here it will join the previously installed water main that makes up the Maiden Gully to Marong Pipeline.
Works will be completed on weekdays between 7am and 5.30pm. We plan to finish these works in late May.
Access to the easement area between Glenelg Drive and Edwards Road may be limited during these works.
This means we may need to temporarily close some sections of the Glenelg Drive Reserve Dog Off Leash Area, between mid-March and late May. We’ll install temporary fencing for safety before we start the works.
We will work to reopen sections of the reserve where possible, only closing the areas where we’re working. You will still be able to access your property as normal. We apologise for any inconvenience.

Water mains maintenance - Kangaroo Flat
- Kangaroo Flat
Update
The water mains maintenance works have now been completed.
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.
Thank you for your patience during these works.
Earlier
On Tuesday 3 February we’re completing maintenance work on the water mains in Kangaroo Flat between 8am and 1pm.
Following recent investigation work, we need to carry out further maintenance on the water pipes that supply this area.
Works will happen at the corner of Mackenzie Street West and Browning Street and result in a planned 4-5 hour water supply interruption for some customers in the area - impacted customers will be notified directly.
The area affected is along MacKenzie Street West between John Street and Browning Street, including Noble Court, in Kangaroo Flat.
If you see our crews working in the area on Monday 2 February, this is preparation work and will not impact your water supply.
We’ll complete these works as quickly as possible to minimise any interruption time. These works will improve the resilience of the water network.
| 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.
Planned maintenance works – Kangaroo Flat
- Kangaroo Flat
We will be installing electrical cabling to a flow meter that has recently been installed in High Steet, Kangaroo Flat, in the service road between Bank and Taylor streets.
This device measures the volume and speed of water moving through a pipe and will help us to monitor the flows in the water network around your property and detect leaks.
The works will be carried out on Tuesday 10 and Wednesday 11 February, between 7am and 5pm each day.
During the works (7am to 5pm) the service road will remain open to traffic under the direction of traffic management.
The service road will remain open to allow traffic movement for residents and customers of the nearby motel and childcare centre.
There will be no disruption to water services.
We thank you for your patience during these works.
