Stage 1 nearing completion

14 November 2023

Stage 1 of the project is nearing completion with Killard Infrastructure anticipating all work to be complete by the end of November 2023.

Construction of the sewer and water trunk mains is now complete with over 1.3 km sewer trunk mains and 1.4 km of water mains constructed and the final connections made on 10 November.

During construction some challenging conditions were encountered including: excavation in rock up to 5 m deep, the construction of water mains within close proximity to high voltage underground power up to 66kV and a 35m long under-bore the Northern Railway Line consisting of a 700mm diameter steel casing to accommodate the 450mm diameter sewer main.

Now that the mains construction has been finished only the pressure testing, commissioning and restoration remains to be undertaken and will be complete in the next couple of weeks weather permitting.
