WaterNSW is carrying out the next phase of the Warragamba Pipeline Valves and Controls Upgrade to ensure the reliable and efficient operation of the pipelines, and provide a resilient and safe water supply to customers in Greater Sydney.
The upgrade started in early June and will be complete by late 2024, weather permitting.
Work will include:
- replacement or refurbishment of major valves and control systems
- improvement of security systems and access
- installation of pressure monitoring and fault-detection systems.
Work will take place during standard construction hours, Monday to Friday from 7am to 6pm and Saturday 8am to 1pm. We will consult with relevant stakeholders if work outside these hours is required.
WaterNSW has partnered with Abergeldie to deliver this work.
Impacts of the work might include increased staff and equipment on site, dust and noise and some truck movements. All work will be carried out on WaterNSW land, and no access to private property is required.
In early June, some properties connected to the pipeline experienced a temporary outage of their untreated water supply due to essential works. These works are now complete and water has been reconnected to those affected.
