Australind wastewater pipeline project soon to begin

Water Corporation of WA will soon begin upgrading the Bedingfield Way No.1 pump station that serves the Australind Sewerage District located approximately 150 metres west of the Brunswick River (WA).

The plans to upgrade the wastewater pump station and associated pressure main are well advanced and aim to service growth in the region.

The works involve:

• construction of about 406m of 250mm diameter below-ground pressure main and associated fittings;
• recommissioning of about 81m of redundant water distribution main on the Paris Road Bridge, to be used as a pressure main;
• upgrade of the pump station capacity, including provision of a new odour filter pit and a new bypass arrangement.

These works are expected to proceed in June 2015. The works are expected to take about 11 months to complete.

While works on and around the Paris Road Bridge will be appropriately timed to minimise inconvenience to pedestrians and motorists, some traffic delays can be expected.
