Connewarre - Water main upgrade works

12 August 2025

Barwon Water is connecting two water main pipes on Bluestone School Road and Black Rock Road, Connewarre, to ensure we can continue to provide reliable and high-quality water services for our customers.

Work is scheduled for 25 August to mid-October 2025. Work will take place between 7.30 am and 5.30 pm, Monday to Friday. Please refer to the map overleaf for the location of these works.

As part of this work, please note:

  • There will be some changes to traffic conditions, including a reduced speed on Bluestone School Road and Black Rock Road, Connewarre.
  • There may be increased noise and dust. We will aim to minimise impacts to local residents and businesses.
  • We will reinstate the area upon completion of works, ensuring it is left in good condition.
  • Customers may experience ‘milky water’.This is tiny air bubbles in the water which settle out if the water is left to stand for a short time.The water remains 100% safe to drink.
  • If your water supply and access to property are to be impacted for a short time, you will be contacted separately.

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

This project is being delivered by Barwon Asset Solutions, a company owned by Barwon Water to deliver high quality asset maintenance and project management services.
