Upcoming night works: Sunday 27 October to Friday 1 November 2024

15 October 2024

We need to undertake night works to remove the temporary sewerage pipeline from along the Geelong Road median strip (refer to map below). Night works (7 pm to 7 am) will take place from Sunday 27 October to Friday 1 November 2024.

What to expect during the works:

  • There will be partial lane closure along Geelong Road between Sheepwash Road and the Barwon Heads pump station.
  • Geelong Road service lane access will be altered during the night works. Access will be maintained via one of the two Geelong Road access points.
  • There will be noise from trucks and equipment along Geelong Road. We will try to keep it to a minimum. Please note the noisiest work will be removing the temporary sewerage pipeline underground at the Geelong Road service lane access points and the Barwon Heads Community Arts Garden.
  • You may notice increased light along Geelong Road.
  • You may notice some odour at certain times throughout the works. This odour is not harmful to people or pets.
  • Temporary fencing and traffic management will be in place to ensure public and worker safety during the works.
  • Access to private properties for residents and emergency services will be maintained. If we need to temporarily restrict vehicle access to driveways during the works, we’ll doorknock and let you know.

There will not be any disruption to your water or sewerage services as part of these works.


We apologise for any inconvenience. Thank you for your patience and understanding while we get these essential works done.
