Project overview

The Rural City of Wangaratta has identified the North West Growth Area and the Southern Growth Area as the city's two main residential development zones.

Both areas are in the early stages of development. Planning for the construction of new sewer pipelines is underway for the following on-site works:

Southern Growth Area

  • 1000 metre x 250-millimetre diameter sewer rising main from Salisbury Street sewer pump station, along Salisbury Street to Cribbes Road.
  • 710m of gravity sewer pipe ranging 225-300mm in diameter, west of Salisbury Street.
  • 560m x 300mm gravity sewer pipe along Cribbes Road and Rattray Avenue.

North West Growth Area

  • 450m x 250mm sewer rising main from Wangandary Road sewer pump station, heading south to the Lindner Road sewer pump station.
  • 600m x 350mm sewer rising main from Lindner Road sewer pump station, heading west along Lindner Road to Christensen Lane.
  • 1200m of 300-450mm gravity sewer pipe between Cruse Street and the Lindner Road sewer pump station
  • 550m x 225mm gravity sewer pipe along Williams Rd from Christensen Lane towards Three Mile Creek.

This work will enable residential growth to continue in these areas for many years.
