Project Overview

The City of Melton is rapidly growing, with new families and businesses joining the community. We need to ensure a clean and reliable water supply into the future.

That's why we're installing a new water main along Beattys Road, so that we can continue to provide water to a growing community. As part of these works, we will be installing sections of pipe:

• along Beattys Road, crossing under Plumpton Road
• parallel to Modena Road and Verona Crescent
• in a section of the road reserve along Taylors Road
• in a section of the road reserve along Melton Highway

During construction, there will be reduced speed limits as part of our traffic management arrangements, to ensure the safety of workers and the community.

See the project map below to learn more.

When will construction happen?

Construction will begin in June 2023, and is expected to be complete by late 2023. This will be carried out in stages, to minimise impacts on the local area.

What to expect during construction

We will make every effort to minimise disruption and inconvenience to you. During the works, you can expect:

• Working hours will be 7am to 5pm, Monday to Friday and 7am to 1pm Saturdays
• There will be signage and traffic management in place to keep workers and the community safe around the works area
• Increased construction traffic and machinery in the area
• There may be some noise within allowable standards
• We will make every effort to minimise dust
