Water main upgrades and renewals get underway across Berridale from Monday 8 April 2024, with work on this significant maintenance project scheduled to run through until December 2024.
Sections of the town's water mains totalling four kilometres in length will be upgraded, maintained, or replaced by the end of 2024.
This essential work will improve the reliability of the town's water supply, ensuring that Berridale residents will enjoy dependable access to clean, safe drinking water into the future.
This work will require some short-term disruptions to the water service supplying some homes and businesses in Berridale, with a minimum of two days' advance notice provided to those affected.
A majority of this scheduled maintenance work is concentrated along Myack Street, with most water supply interruptions affecting properties on this street. Properties in other locations across Berridale will also be affected on occasion.
Contractors performing this essential maintenance will require access onto private property to connect individual homes and businesses to the new water mains. This stage of the project is not scheduled until later 2024, and all affected properties will be notified in advance.
Crews are set to begin preliminary investigation works on Monday 8 April 2024. Water supply will not be affected during this first stage of the project.
Council appreciates the community's understanding while this essential maintenance work is underway. Motorists are asked to be mindful of workers and machinery that will be present on and near roadways from April to December 2024.
