Geotechnical investigations underway

As part of the Options Analysis phase, geotechnical investigations will be conducted to better understand the ground conditions (soil and rock).

The geotechnical investigations are expected to progressively occur around Wivenhoe Dam from June to late 2024, between 6.30am and 6.30pm on weekdays, weather and ground conditions permitting. Some weekend work may be required.

Residents and visitors can expect to see an increased number of workers around the lake and local area, as well as:

  • Traffic control: residents may experience short-term traffic disruptions. Please follow the directions of traffic controllers and signage onsite.
  • Minor noise, possible dust and vibration may be experienced.
  • Access: visitors to park locations may be limited at times for public safety.
