Reservoirs to be re-roofed at Kingaroy and Wondai

Back

As a part of Council’s capital works program and commitment to ensure the long term sustainability and efficiency of our water infrastructure, Council has engaged Water Infrastructure Services to undertake the replacement of the reservoir roof at the Orana reservoir - Kingaroy and Scott Street reservoir - Wondai.

Preliminary assessment and cleaning works are currently underway. Structural works including roof removal, replacement and internal pipe works are expected to begin at the Scott Street reservoir, Wondai in the week beginning 9 March 2020 and Orana reservoir, Kingaroy the week beginning 10 April 2020. Both projects are expected to be completed by 26 June 2020.

The purpose of this work is to improve the structural integrity, ongoing operation and water quality protection of the reservoir. Council will be constructing temporary storage arrangements at Scott Street as the main reservoir will need to be taken offline for several weeks during the work.

Earlier preparation works will be required in some areas to improve the systems valves and to minimise interruptions to supply. Affected properties will be notified directly prior to these works occurring.

Council apologises for any inconvenience that this work may cause and thanks you in advance for your patience.

Please direct any enquiries to Council’s Water and Wastewater team by phone 4189 9100 or by email Council.
