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.
This stage of construction will continue until late May with the pipeline joining 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 may need to temporarily close some sections of the easement during works. This means you may see temporary fencing installed 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.
