We transformed 1.65 kilometres of an underground concrete drain into a natural waterway, and turned Lewis Park into a more enjoyable community space. Learn more about what we did.

We're upgrading the dam infrastructure at Cardinia Reservoir to ensure its future as a safe and resilient water source for Melbourne.

We are installing a new pump to facilitate stormwater flow under the Dandenong-Frankston railway line.

We’re undertaking a four-year program aimed at controlling rapidly-spreading weed species and revegetation with native species along a 2.3km section of Dandenong Creek, from Ferntree Gully Road to Mulgrave Reserve.

We are upgrading meters that help monitor water flowing through our water mains under the St Georges Road median.

We’ve completed the modification works to strengthen and extend the life of the Blind Creek footbridge in Fairpark Reserve. 

The Hallam Valley wetlands are now open to the community again following works to improve how the wetland functions.

We’re embarking on a major program that will see over 60km of the Birrarung (Yarra River) receive a dedicated renewal over five years from 2022-2026 to help promote the health of our landmark waterway.

We are upgrading sections of the Mordialloc Main Sewer (MRD) from Chute Street along White Street to Malcolm Road. Ensuring we maintain our world class sewerage system today, tomorrow and for generations to come.

The Port Melbourne Drainage Pump Station on Esplanade West was built in 1891 to provide flood protection to a catchment of 126 hectares across the Port Melbourne area. The station houses four pumps that pump storm water from the historical wetlands out into Port Phillip Bay.

Three of the pumps were installed in 1951, with the fourth installed in 1981. All four pumps are nearing the end of their service life and require upgrading to ensure flood mitigation services are continued to be provided in Port Melbourne.

As part of the works, a cross-connecting drainage point located within Lagoon Reserve, off Graham Street, will be upgraded to prevent sea water from re-entering and corroding drain and pump station assets in the future.
