Projects

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

We’re taking a holistic approach to reducing flood risk in Elster Creek Catchment, collaboratively implementing the Elster Creek Catchment Flood Management Plan 2019-24 with the cities of Bayside, Glen Eira, Kingston and Port Phillip.

We’re developing a holistic, data-driven approach to prevent litter entering Port Phillip Bay through Elster Creek.

We’re building a second drain to carry flood water from Melbourne’s southeast to the Port Philip Bay at Elwood.

In partnership with Glen Eira City Council, we’ve commissioned several studies into options for mitigating flooding from the Koornang Main Drain, which services the suburbs of Ormond and McKinnon.

Melbourne Water undertakes routine inspections and maintenance of Lilydale Drain and other drainage assets within the local area. To maintain these assets at times maintenance and desilting works are required.
