About

As part of our commitment to improving water infrastructure across Tasmania, we have upgraded the water main along Marguerite Street and Lollara Road in Ranelagh (between the Ranelagh Showgrounds and near 224 Lollara Road).

The existing water main was due for replacement, and this completed project will ensure a more reliable and consistent water supply for the community. The project involved installing 1,035 metres of new pipeline to upgrade the aging infrastructure.

Works took place over several months, between Wednesday 2 April and Friday 18 July 2025. This project was completed 4 weeks ahead of schedule.

Planned Works

What to expect during these works

We were committed to minimising disruptions to the community, but there were some temporary impacts, including:

  • Increased vehicle movements
  • Construction noise
  • Minor traffic delays

During construction, there were temporary changes to traffic conditions and access along Marguerite Street and Lollara Road. Appropriate traffic management was in place, and we kept the community informed before and during major works.

There was also a planned interruption to water services. Further communication was provided to the impacted residences.

Unfortunately, these impacts were unavoidable during construction.

We sincerely apologise for any inconvenience caused, and thank you for your patience as we delivered this important project.
