Open House Melbourne: Yan Yean Reservoir Park: Beyond the Tap
Join the tour of Yan Yean Reservoir and learn about its history, engineering and ongoing role in Melbourne's water management system.
Reimagining Eumemmerring Creek
We are reimagining almost 2 kilometres of Eumemmerring Creek into a natural waterway from Doveton Avenue, Doveton through to Lace Street, Eumemmerring.
Who is Melbourne Water?
From providing clean drinking water, treating sewage , working in our community to reduce flood risk, and keeping all 25,000km of Melbourne’s rivers, creeks and catchments healthy, we care for, manage and protect all parts of the water cycle.
Werribee Hangar 1 relocation and restoration
We will disassemble, relocate and reassemble Hangar 1 closer to Hangar 2 near the B-24 Liberator Museum and demolish the workshop at the Werribee Satellite Aerodrome site.
Western Port wetlands
The Western Port Ramsar site spans nearly 60,000 hectares of wetlands, tidal flats, and seagrass meadows. It is internationally recognised for its biodiversity, rich birdlife, and its role in supporting healthy marine and coastal ecosystems. These wetlands filter water, support fisheries, reduce flood risk, and provide habitat for thousands of native species.
Managing flood risk together
Flood management in Melbourne is a shared responsibility between Melbourne Water, councils, emergency services and other key partners.
Flood modelling
Flood models identify which areas are most likely to flood, how quickly, and how deep the water may get.
Caring for Western Port’s Ramsar wetlands
Melbourne Water protects Ramsar wetlands, vital for wildlife, culture, clean water and flood resilience. We work with partners to secure their future.
