Improving drainage and flood mitigation is one of the ways we’re building a better Manningham.
What’s happening?
We’re upgrading the drainage system along Trezise Street and Cemetery Road, Warrandyte to improve stormwater management and reduce flood risk.
The project will involve:
- upgrading drainage
- installing kerb and channel
Where is it?
This project will include the drainage:
- along Trezise Street, between Yarra Street and Brackenbury Street.
- along Cemetery Road, between Yarra Street and Brackenbury Street.
- within the easement at 21 Brackenbury Street.
When will the works happen?
We’re delivering this project as part of our 2025/26 Capital Works Program.
Construction is likely to begin in 2026 – we’ll confirm timing once we’ve engaged a contractor for the works.
Why is the upgrade needed?
This upgrade will improve stormwater management to prevent flooding, reduce water pooling, and minimise erosion. This will ensure a safer and more resilient environment for our community.
How will the works affect me?
Works will occur between 7:00am and 5:00pm on weekdays.
During these times, you may notice:
- construction noise
- minor traffic delays
- a single lane road closure
