We're reimagining a number of creeks across Melbourne, transforming them into desirable open spaces where people can interact with nature in cooler, healthier environments.
We’ve transformed 1.65 kilometres of underground concrete drain into a natural waterway, and turned Lewis Park into a more enjoyable community space.
We’re working with the local community and project partners to transform a section of Moonee Ponds Creek in Oak Park and Strathmore.
We're upgrading sections of the North Yarra Main (NYM) Sewer between Yarra Flats Park, Ivanhoe East and Farms Rd, Alphington (3.5kms). Ensuring we maintain our world class sewerage system today, tomorrow and for generations to come.
We're maintaining Melbourne Water’s pipeline in Box Hill to increase water delivery capacity to Melbourne's northeastern suburbs.
Melbourne Water is removing an infestation of giant pine scale from Cardinia Reservoir and replanting the affected areas with native plants. These works will protect the local environment from further damage from giant pine scale and ensure the long-term biodiversity of the area.
We’re planning to complete a dam safety upgrade to Cardinia Reservoir in the summer of 2024/25, to protect and prolong the life of one of Victoria’s most pristine water catchments that supplies Melburnians with world-class drinking water.
We will be removing trees and vegetation that are invasive weeds along the Werribee River in Bacchus Marsh then replanting the area with native trees and plants. Our maintenance program will also include rabbit control.
These works will improve the health of this waterway by protecting it from erosion while ensuring the local platypus population and other native animals and plants can thrive.
The Hallam Valley wetlands are now open to the community again following works to improve how the wetland functions.
