CWW said Interflow’s renewal on Collins Street took more than 13 weeks to complete, with works undertaken at night.
“As the city slept, our crews were out undertaking these vital works to ensure a safe and secure water supply for residents, office workers, local traders, and visitors to Melbourne’s CBD,” said CWW in a social media post.
“Now we have finished Collins Street, we will be moving to Bourke Street where our delivery partners Downer will be starting the water main renewal between Meyers and Exhibition Street.”
On 1 July, CWW combined with Western Water to form Greater Western Water.
The new entity was formed in order to create an organisation with the financial resources and staff to cope with the region’s population growth and demand for new infrastructure, while also reducing household water bills.
