We’re undertaking a four-year program of weed control and revegetation works to improve the condition of native vegetation along Malcolm Creek in Mount Ridley Nature Conservation Reserve.
Melbourne Water is undertaking water main upgrade works in Melbourne’s northern suburbs. These upgrade works will ensure that additional water can be transferred between Silvan and Greenvale reservoirs to accommodate for the area’s future growth and ensure the community continues to be provided with a reliable and secure water supply.
We're performing upgrades to the Essex Street Main Drain - one of Melbourne Water's significant drains in the South Yarra and Prahran catchment.
We're collaborating with government agencies and the French Island community on a five-year project to create a safe haven for threatened wildlife, by eradicating feral cats from French Island.
Greening the Pipeline is an ambitious project to transform the Main Outfall Sewer reserve along the Federation Trail into a greener, cooler parkland for our communities in Melbourne’s west.
Grow West is a long-term, collaborative environmental program working to rejuvenate degraded landscapes in the Upper Werribee Catchment and create vegetation connections between the YouYangs Regional Park, Brisbane Ranges National Park, Werribee Gorge State Park and Lerderderg State Park.
The Hallam Valley wetlands are now open to the community again following works to improve how the wetland functions.
In Melbourne, our rivers and creeks are essential to our way of life. That’s why at Melbourne Water we’re removing weeds and planting native plants along a 3km stretch of Haunted Gully Creek. Once established, the vegetation will protect the banks of the creek and provide habitat so our native wildlife can thrive.
The Hawthorn East Main Drain (HEMD) is part of the complex drainage system which Melbourne Water manages. A recent inspection of the HEMD found that sections may be reaching the end of their working life resulting in brick separation and some brick loss. That’s why at Melbourne Water we are upgrading the HEMD so that it can continue to ensure that rainfall and ground water can safely flow away from built-up areas into rivers and creeks.
We're upgrading the Hawthorn East Retarding Basin, located next to Rathmines Reserve, to ensure a safe drainage system and prevent surrounding homes from flooding.
