Overview
What's this project all about?
Albert Road in Moonah is a vital part of the local community, and we're committed to ensuring its water infrastructure continues to meet the needs of residents and businesses for years to come.
TasWater is renewing the water mains along Albert Road to improve the reliability and quality of the water supply, while also helping to reduce the risk of future service interruptions. These upgrades are part of our broader commitment to providing safe, clean drinking water and supporting the ongoing growth of our communities.
We know construction can cause some disruption, and we’re working closely with the local community to minimise the impact wherever possible. While there may be some short-term inconvenience, this work will bring long-term benefits for Moonah.
What’s happening?
We’ll be renewing the existing water main along Albert Road, Moonah. 135 meters of existing water main will be renewed as part of this project. The work will be carried out across several weeks, subject to ground conditions.
Why are we doing this?
The existing water main along Albert Road been gradually deteriorating. Renewing this section now will help prevent potential failures, maintain stable water pressure, and ensure consistently high-water quality.
Community impacts
What to expect during these works.
We are committed to minimising disruptions to the community, but you may notice some temporary impacts, including:
- Increased vehicle movements including heavy machinery
- Construction noise
- Minor traffic changes
During construction, there may be some temporary impacts, including changes to traffic conditions and access along a section of Albert Road. Two lanes of traffic will remain open; however, on-street may be removed for a period during the project. We’ll have appropriate traffic management in place and will keep the community informed before and during major works to minimise impacts to residents and businesses.
Upcoming water service interruption/s.
We will provide further updates to affected residents with specific details before this work takes place at the end of the project. Unfortunately, these impacts are unavoidable during construction.
