North Warrandyte Sewerage Project

Many customers in the North Warrandyte area can now access a piped sewerage service.

Approximately 1,000 properties that were unable to contain their wastewater on their property all year round now have the option to flush and let us take care of their wastewater. No more boggy yards and odour.

Declaration of sewerage in North Warrandyte

We formally declared the sewerage service in North Warrandyte to be 'ready for use' on 21 December 2016.

Community contribution fee

As we have had a high level of interest in people connecting to the new sewer, we are pleased to advise that we have extended by another twelve months the date from which we will start collecting the Community Sewerage Contribution fee.

We will now start collecting the fee from 21 December 2018. This will allow you more time to engage plumbers to complete any works required.

If your property has not connected by 21 December 2018, a Community Sewerage Contribution fee will be added to your quarterly bill. This fee will be $26.44 per quarter for 20 years or until the property has connected.

Sewage Pumping Station

The construction of the sewage pumping station (SPS) at the corner of Research-Warrandyte Road and Professors Lane was completed in December 2016, and the site has since been landscaped. A local landscaping contractor will be maintaining the site for a two year period. The SPS services approximately 400 properties in North Warrandyte.

Inverted siphon main

The inverted siphon main was completed in December 2016, and it connects the new sewer network with the existing Warrandyte sewerage network (south of the Yarra River). The new connecting sewer pipelines were bored beneath the Yarra River, in the vicinity of the Kangaroo Ground – Warrandyte Road Bridge.
