Water Main Replacement Works

The Australian and Queensland Governments are continuing the Riverway Stage 2 road corridor upgrade, which will improve safety and reduce traffic congestion.

As part of this project, Council is undertaking the replacement of identified underground water mains located within the intersection of
Riverway Drive and Ponti Road in Kelso.

This project is part of Council’s annual water maintenance plan, which focuses on keeping our community infrastructure in optimal condition and supporting ongoing regional growth.

  • As part of this project, the contractor will:
    remove and replace underground water main pipes
  • undertake testing and maintenance of associated water infrastructure

If you live in or are travelling through the area, you may experience:

  • reduced water pressure from 11pm on Thursday 7 August to 4am on Friday 8 August 2025.
  • Council advises that the reduction in water pressure will affect the entire suburban catchment zone of Kelso.
