We are upgrading meters that help monitor water flowing through our water mains under the St Georges Road median.
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. Replanting and hand-seeding to regenerate the affected areas has now been completed.
We’re upgrading the Western Trunk Sewer, a vital part of our sewerage network that has reached the end of its service life. The sewer transfers 57% of Melbourne’s sewage to the Western Treatment Plant in Werribee.
Melbourne Water is building new infrastructure to meet growing demand for water Melbourne’s northern and western suburbs.
