Water works in your area starting March 2026

You might not notice a lot of the work we do because most of it is beneath your feet. Every day, we’re maintaining and upgrading the pipes and pumps that keep water flowing. With some upcoming works in Robinsons Road Langwarrin you might see us or our delivery partner Able Drainage around.

Here’s what to expect while we get the job done.

What we're doing

This project is to upgrade a critical water pipe, so you can always rely on us when you need a drink, a bath or to wash the clothes or dishes.

When it's happening

We’re planning to start work from early March until June. It should take 2 to 3 months to complete (depending on the weather).

You can expect us to work Monday to Friday between 6 am and 5 pm. On the odd occasion, we might need to work at other times for safety, technical or permit reasons.

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 while we work:

  • Intermittent Road clousures eastbound on Robinsons Road - detour via Golf Links Road
  • More trucks on the streets around you.
  • Fewer car parks around the work zones.
  • Noise from machinery, like beepers when trucks reverse.
  • A change in normal traffic flow.
  • Our traffic management team will be around to make sure people, bikes and cars can move around safely.

Don't miss these details

We’re working with Able Drainage to help us.

You may notice a change to your water pressure while we work as we will need to bypass certain areas of the network to upgrade the pipe. Although you may notice a slight change to your water pressure, it will still remain within an acceptable range for your general day to day use.

If you're experiencing no water supply at all, please contact our Faults and Emergencies team on 13 28 12.

We expect services to go back to normal once works are completed.

When we’ve finished the job, we’ll leave things how we found them and make sure we return any areas we’ve impacted as close as possible to their original condition.

Frequently Asked Questions

Our infrastructure renewal program involves replacing, maintaining and upgrading the existing water and sewerage infrastructure above and below the ground, so you can always rely on us when you need a drink, a bath, to wash the clothes or dishes and every time you flush or send water down the drain.

The replacement of the water main will:

  • Improve water service reliability
  • Reduce potential property damage if the water main were to fail
  • Reduce maintenance and repair costs of the water main

South East Water will provide notices of their intention to work in an area prior to the work commencing. If the works are deferred, we will send you another notification of the new proposed start date. We'll also keep this web page up to date with any changes and latest updates.

We don't anticipate any impact to driveways at this stage however we will be in touch with directly impacted properties if required. 

There is no cost to the property owner for these works.
