Trunk Sewer rehabilitation work - Kangaroo Point and East Brisbane
As part of Queensland Urban Utilities’ commitment to ensuring the long-term sustainability and efficiency of Brisbane’s wastewater infrastructure, works will soon commence to rehabilitate and reline the sewerage pipe network in parts of Kangaroo Point and East Brisbane.
Work will be carried out within the existing sewer main at two locations. Firstly, on a small section of Cairns Street, Kangaroo Point, and secondly on a section of Hampton Street, East Brisbane.
Works are due to commence late April to early May, 2011 and will take up to one week at each location to complete, weather permitting. This work will be carried out at night between 6pm-6am, Sunday to Friday.
Possible community impacts may include:
-
Dust and odour – minimal disturbances.
-
Traffic – there may be some local traffic disruptions, however street access will remain. Traffic management will be in place at all times.
-
Noise – there will be some noise disturbance as these works take place, however, all efforts will be made to reduce impact upon customers.
-
Wastewater services – no service disruptions are planned.

-
Notification letters will be sent to surrounding residents and businesses advising of the project and potential impacts before works commence.
