Project goal:
Upgrading our wastewater pump stations across the metropolitan area to ensure we can continue to provide reliable disposal of wastewater across the state.
Status:
In construction
Delivery Date:

Why is this taking place?
To ensure we can securely and continuously dispose of wastewater for the growing Western Australian community, we need to upgrade generators at our existing pump stations.

How will this impact the community?
Noise
Residents and local businesses may notice more activity and noise around the wastewater pump station, due to activity and truck movements. This will be limited to our work hours of Monday to Saturday 7am to 5pm.
We understand and appreciate that this causes temporary inconvenience and disruption in the community, and we are committed to working with our customers to minimise impact.
Reinstatement
Please be assured that any affected areas will be reinstated as closely as possible to their condition prior to the work.
