Sydney Water announces wastewater project partners

Diamond Bay, NSW

Sydney Water announced it has partnered with Comdain Infrastructure and WSP on the Refresh Vaucluse and Diamond Bay project.

The project is intended to stop the continuous flow of untreated water from three ocean outfalls at Vaucluse, Dover Heights and Diamond Bay.

By re-directing wastewater flows from these catchments to the nearby Bondi treatment plant, Sydney Water will protect the health of the community and marine ecology, reducing the impact to the ocean by at least 93 per cent. 

Sydney Water and partners will address the water quality and public health risks associated with the ocean outfalls. 

The project will ensure that all wastewater is treated at Bondi’s Wastewater Treatment Plant. 

Detailed construction design has kicked off with community consultation as its cornerstone. 

During this stage, the delivery contractor will be looking to optimise the project’s design with a view to further reducing impact to the community and environment.

Horizontal directional drilling specialist Maxibor has been contracted for the project, with construction expected to commence next year.
