We’re replacing wastewater pipes along several streets in Burwood, we are currently working in Greenhaven Drive and will shortly start work commence in Mairehau Road, it is likely the wastewater works will finish August 2026.

Coordinating works on Mairehau Road
We’re coordinating two projects to minimise disruption for residents and traffic.
- Wastewater renewal starting near Greenhaven Drive.
- Installing cabling channels ahead of intersection upgrades at Burwood Road/Mairehau Road.
The wastewater works require a road closure on Mairehau Road between Greenhaven Drive and Burwood Road; we are utilising this closure to install cabling channels for the intersection upgrade and installation of new underground power cables.
Traffic management:
- Lane closures and detours will be in place.
- Detours will change as work progresses - please follow signage and contractor instructions.
- On-street parking will be restricted where work is happening (cones will indicate no-parking areas).
- Our contractor will liaise with residents about vehicle and pedestrian access.
- Thank you for your patience and cooperation.
