Melbourne Water is increasing the capacity of the Elwood Main Drain to reduce flooding in the Elster Creek catchment.

We're upgrading the last remaining section of the Maribyrnong River Main (MRM) Sewer in Essendon West and Aberfeldie, ensuring a secure and reliable sewerage service for decades to come.

In Melbourne, water is essential to our way of life. Today, clean, affordable water is readily available to our homes and businesses whenever we need it. Running from Beaconsfield to Langwarrin, the M418 water main is integral to the water supply for the Mornington Peninsula area. The main consists of divide and air valves to allow for outages, maintenance works and functionality. We’re conducting improvement works to ensure it continues to operate efficiently throughout the Cranbourne community, today, tomorrow and for generations to come.

Melbourne Water updraded the internal fittings of the sewer maintenance hole located at the corner of Cullen Street and Hudsons Road, Spotswood.

In partnership with Glen Eira City Council, we’ve commissioned several studies into options for mitigating flooding from the Koornang Main Drain, which services the suburbs of Ormond and McKinnon.

Melbourne Water is removing the infestation of giant pine scale from Cardinia Reservoir and replanting the affected areas with native plants. These works will protect the local environment from further damage from giant pine scale and ensure the long-term biodiversity of the area.

We’re working to remove an infestation of water weed (water hyacinth) discovered on our land within Namatjira Park.

We’re upgrading Liverpool Road retarding basin in Boronia, to ensure a safe drainage system and prevent surrounding homes from flooding.

We’ve completed the modification works to strengthen and extend the life of the Blind Creek footbridge in Fairpark Reserve. The bridge is open and detours around the Blind Creek Trail have been removed.
