Improving the reliability of water supply to San Remo and Phillip Island customers

As part of our continuing program to improve the reliability of your water supply, Westernport Water undertook valve replacement works on the water main between San Remo and Cowes in 2022.

Project budget

$707,436.50

Why did we need these works?

The valves were at the end of their theoretical useful life. Replacing them will:

  • reduce unplanned water interruptions to San Remo and Phillip Island customers
  • improve the reliability of water supply
  • extend the life of the water main.

Dates

A rolling program of works began in the second week of June 2022 and continued until October 2022.
