Important details

What we’re doing

This project is to construct and install a new water transfer main in Lang Lang to cater for future growth in the area.

When it's happening

We're planning to start works from mid-October 2026. We'll commence works to construct a dedicated water transfer pipeline on McDonalds Track from mid-October, for approximately 5 weeks. 

We'll then move our crews onto Western Port Road. We'll work in sections in the eastbound lane on Westernport Road. The eastbound lane will be closed during our works, however we'll have traffic management in place to maintain two-way traffic.

What might impact you


We’ll do our best to keep impacts to a minimum, however these are the kinds of things you might notice when construction begins:

  • McDonalds Track and Westernport Road will have delays with traffic reduced to one lane, with traffic management in place maintaining two-way traffic

  • Local road closures with detours in place 

  • Traffic management, including temporary traffic signals to guide road users around the work zone

  • Periods of noise when heavy machinery is being used, including reversing beepers

  • More trucks on local roads and reduced on-street parking

 

Don’t miss these details

We're working with Abergeldie, BMD, KBR (ABK) to help us.

ABK will be temporarily using the nature reserve area at the south western corner of Westernport Road and McDonald’s Track as a temporary site office and storage area for equipment. There won’t be a permanent building on this site, but the area will be secure and follow strict safety requirements. You’ll notice:

  • Temporary fencing
  • Storage for equipment
  • A small site office that looks like a shipping container
  • Vehicles entering and leaving the site for the duration of the works.
