To support the development a P–12 independent school, as part of the Riverwalk Estate community infrastructure development, 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 Airfield site.

We’re transforming almost 2 kilometres of Eumemmerring Creek into a natural waterway, from Doveton Avenue, Doveton through to Lace Street, Eumemmerring.

We’re transforming another section of Tarralla Creek, Croydon, into a more natural and enjoyable community space.

The Hawthorn East Main Drain (HEMD) is part of the complex drainage system which Melbourne Water manages. A recent inspection of the HEMD found that sections may be reaching the end of their working life resulting in brick separation and some brick loss.   That’s why at Melbourne Water we are upgrading the HEMD so that it can continue to ensure that rainfall and ground water can safely flow away from built-up areas into rivers and creeks. 

We are improving visitor access and protecting the environment along Cement Creek and the Yarra River at the popular Redwood Forest in Warburton.
Some paths near the riverbank will be temporarily closed while we build a boardwalk, viewing platforms, walking paths and fencing, and revegetate the riverbank to protect native plants and animals for generations to come.

We are restoring the native vegetation of 47 hectares (3 kms) along Devilbend Creek, adjacent to the Devilbend Reservoir. Over four years we are removing weeds and planting 11,000 indigenous plants to create a healthier., more resilient ecosystem. These works will protect the waterway from erosion and improve habitat for native plants and animals such as the Dwarf Galaxias, Southern Toadlet and Eastern Long-necked Turtle.

We’re trialling a better way of collaborating to address challenges in the Moonee Ponds Creek Catchment, progressively transforming the creek through co-designing and co-delivering projects.

Melbourne Water is undertaking essential upgrades by raising the sewer weir and replacing and raising maintenance holes at the North West Sewer shaft within Afton Street Reserve in Aberfeldie.
