Starting today, routine stormwater drains inspections will commence throughout Baw Baw Shire.
The inspections are set to be carried out Monday to Friday, between 7am to 5pm for the duration of 7 weeks, by contractor TDM Pipeline Solution within the areas of Drouin, Warragul, Trafalgar and Yarragon.
During the time of the inspections, traffic control may be in place to allow for vehicle and equipment access. Residents may be asked to temporarily move parked cars to allow vehicle and equipment access into the work areas. While there may be some minor noise, there will be minimal traffic disruption during the time of inspections.
Residents who may be affected by the inspections in their street have been advised of the planned works via a letter drop distributed by TDM Pipeline Solution.
Stormwater services will not be affected during the time of inspections.
"We appreciate that these short-term works may have some minor inconveniences to residents, however they are extremely important in ensuring our drainage systems operate efficiently for our community" says Mayor of Baw Baw Shire, Annemarie McCabe. "We appreciate our community's patience as we work with our contractor to keep our stormwater systems reliable into the future".
