The Mirboo North rising main is over 70 years old and needs replacing. The existing water main has reached the end of its expected life, so rather than continue to patch up leaks and bursts, we are replacing the entire pipe.
The existing pipe also runs along and under the Strzelecki Highway which causes disruptions to traffic whenever maintenance or repair work is needed. Where practical, we are changing the alignment of the pipe so that it is off the Strzelecki Highway.
Planned completion date: 2022
We are securing Coongulla and Glenmaggie’s water supply by installing a pipeline to connect the townships to Heyfield’s water system.
