Council is reminding residents to be careful around flood waters and never walk, drive or ride through floodwater. We will be clearing roads and paths to make them safe, which could take some time, depending on the scale of the storm. We will then return to clear the nature strips as soon as practicable in the following weeks. Please try to help Council by keeping any debris clear of roads and paths until it can be removed Council has been working closely with Emergency Services in preparation for this storm event, inspecting drainage pits in flood-prone areas and organising additional sandbagging in anticipation of protecting residents’ properties. https://www.centraldistrictcouncil.com/news/water-mains-renewal monthly 0.5 2025-05-08 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/681bf5f5cd4bc462862afd86/1746747692017-DCU55VJ2X9ZL6TJZBLKC/unsplash-image-0a5VbkqqFFE.jpg News - Water Mains Renewal What’s happening? Central District Council has awarded Civil Constructions the contract to complete water main renewals, with work starting in Main Street in early February. It will take up to a month to complete the work. The completion of the new water main will ensure that we can meet the growing demand for our town and continue to provide uninterrupted water year-round. Further, the Roads Authority is scheduled to resurface this stretch of road in the coming year so we want to make sure we get our underground work done first. Why are the works being done? As the years go by, the ageing pipes need replacing and this time has come for the southbound lane pipes. Although the project is temporarily disruptive, it is vital to the future development of our town. The city has two watermain lines. One line is under the northbound lane, with renewal completed in the 80s. The other is under the southbound lane, which is this project’s focus. These works were identified in the Long Term Plan 2021-31 (LTP) to be completed during this current LTP triennium. The water main will: Ensure that, as demand for water grows, we can continue to provide an uninterrupted, high-quality water supply Provide resilience in the event of a natural disaster Allow us to maintain our assets without major disruption to the water supply. Working with you… We understand that construction for major projects such as the renewal of the water main can be disruptive at times for your business and customers, and we will be conscious of this while we are working in your area. We will work with you to minimise disruption where possible and will keep you informed about what’s happening. There will be clear signage and information for both pedestrians and road users. We thank you for your understanding during these important works. https://www.centraldistrictcouncil.com/news/riverside-festival-returns monthly 0.5 2025-05-08 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/681bf5f5cd4bc462862afd86/1746747797359-XA7C3SFH2RCINMXG3J9N/unsplash-image-vBA-JNHAraI.jpg News - Riverside Festival Returns After a two year hiatus the popular Riverside Festival returns.
