Wangara to Landsdale wastewater upgrades

In order to safely complete the work, a number of road and single lane closures will need to be in place during different stages of the work. We have included the estimated timeframes in the below table. We will also produce maps showing the road closures as the work progresses. Please notes that these timings are an estimate and may vary slightly depending on how work progresses.

In addition to the daily traffic management around the construction sites, the road closures may add additional time to your journey. We encourage drivers to allow for extra travel time or seek an alternative route, where possible. Please remember to drive safely and be mindful of increased activity in the area. Rob Carr Pty Ltd has a Traffic Management Plan in place to direct vehicles, pedestrians, and cyclists safely around the work area and will discuss any access restrictions in advance.

Taking place in the area later this year is the construction of a 3.1 km pipeline from Mirrabooka Avenue in Landsdale to Rigali Way in Wangara, connecting to the Wangara wastewater pipeline. New overflow storage pipes will be installed at the Warradale wastewater pump station, and we will also be upgrading the Rogers Way wastewater pump station.

The project page watercorporation.com.au/landsdalewastewater(External link) will provide updates on this project until it begins later this year, when we will begin sharing construction updates on this page.

The construction contract for the Wangara Wastewater pipeline has recently been awarded to Rob Carr, and they will commence work from August 2021. Service locating and surveying are planned for July and August, with pipeline construction expected to begin in September 2021.

Once underway, the work will be completed in stages and take approximately 12 months to complete.

As the pipeline we are installing is 1 m in diameter, we will be closing off one lane of traffic during construction to ensure a safe work area. This will be done in stages, and your property access may be affected for a short period of time. In certain sections, the pipeline will be installed using trenchless technique (tunnelling), to minimise disruption to the community.

We understand that many businesses operate in this area, therefore we will be giving advance notice prior to access being interrupted, and we will work with you to ensure you can still operate as needed.
