In Melbourne, water is essential to our way of life. Today, clean, affordable water is readily available to our homes and businesses whenever we need it. Running from Beaconsfield to Langwarrin, the M418 water main is integral to the water supply for the Mornington Peninsula area. The main consists of divide and air valves to allow for outages, maintenance works and functionality. We’re conducting improvement works to ensure it continues to operate efficiently throughout the Cranbourne community, today, tomorrow and for generations to come.

We have completed an operation in the Silvan Reservoir closed catchment to clear a large quantity of debris following the 2021 storms. This will reduce bushfire risk in the reservoir and the surrounding region, and in doing so, help protect our water supply.
