About

What's this project all about?

We’re upgrading a section of water main along Napier Street, between Charles and Oxford Streets in Beauty Point, to help ensure a more reliable water service for the Beauty Point community.

The existing 100mm pipe has experienced a growing number of failures in recent years and is no longer performing to our standards. To improve long-term reliability and reduce the risk of future disruptions, we will be replacing it with a durable 100mm PVC-O water main.

Works are expected to commence on Monday 12 May 2025 for approximately 6 weeks. Work hours will be between 7:30am and 5pm, Monday to Friday, weather permitting.


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:

  • Construction noise.
  • Increased vehicle and crew activity, including trucks and contractor vehicles.
  • Excavation along the footpath and road reserve.
  • Minor traffic delays, with traffic management in place.
  • Temporary access restrictions to some properties and limited on-street parking. Our crews will work with affected residents to minimise inconvenience.
  • Water supply interruptions during testing and customer connections. We will provide directly impacted customers with further notification ahead of time.

We thank you for your patience as we deliver this important project.
