Robert Street Watermain Construction

Overview

Tamworth Regional Council is investing $780,000 to renew the watermain along Robert Street between Garden Street and Links Avenue. The main is being replaced as part of Council’s Strategic Asset Renewal Program as the existing main and associated water service connections are ageing, resulting in numerous water main and service failures and subsequent increased maintenance costs.

Works will commence in early July 2024 and are anticipated to take 3 months with construction finishing in October 2024.

Construction crews will work between the hours of 7am and 6pm on weekdays and some Saturday work between the hours of 7am and 12pm may also be required to minimise the impacts of any water outage on residents, businesses and schools in the area.

There will be changes to traffic conditions in the area throughout the project. Please follow all road signage for detours or diversions.

During the project, some water outages will occur to allow the new water main to be connected to properties in this area. Any impacted residents or businesses will be notified before any temporary disruptions to water supply take place.

If you have any further questions about the project, please contact Council’s Project Manager Tom Radford on 6767 5555 or trc@tamworth.nsw.gov.au.
