Come along and help restore vital habitat to the platypus that call the Diamond Creek home!
Our rivers, creeks and iconic bays, and all the plants and green spaces in between, are home to our native wildlife of fishes, platypus, frogs and birds, providing places for them to thrive.
They’re the lifeblood of our natural landscape – they’re what makes living here great.
We are upgrading sections of the Mordialloc Main Sewer network along Chute Street and 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.
We’re working with local councils to update flood information across Greater Melbourne, to better understand the risk of current and future flooding.
