Projects

Melbourne Water is undertaking water main upgrade works in Melbourne’s northern suburbs. These upgrade works will ensure that additional water can be transferred between Silvan and Greenvale reservoirs to accommodate for the area’s future growth and ensure the community continues to be provided with a reliable and secure water supply.

We're performing upgrades to the Essex Street Main Drain - one of Melbourne Water's significant drains in the South Yarra and Prahran catchment.

We’re creating tree canopy over the Merri Creek Trail at Galada Tamboore so that it can be enjoyed by the local community for more days of the year as part of our Urban Cooling Program.

The Greening the Pipeline initiative aims to transform the heritage-listed Main Outfall Sewer reserve, along the Federation Trail bike path, into a parkland for the growing population in Melbourne’s west.

The Hallam Valley wetlands are now open to the community again following works to improve how the wetland functions.

In Melbourne, our rivers and creeks are essential to our way of life. That’s why at Melbourne Water we’re removing weeds and planting native plants along a 3km stretch of Haunted Gully Creek. Once established, the vegetation will protect the banks of the creek and provide habitat so our native wildlife can thrive.

We're upgrading the Hawthorn East Retarding Basin, located next to Rathmines Reserve, to ensure a safe drainage system and prevent surrounding homes from flooding.

We’re replacing the sewer siphon that runs under the Yarra River, as part of the second phase of works on the Hawthorn Main Sewer upgrade.
