What to expect:

• This work will be completed at night when water use is lowest.
• Work crews will be moving about the island in utility vehicles in the days before the shut down, with an increase in traffic on 10 July.
• Seqwater contractors will be bringing fittings to site and getting ready before the shut down to minimise the duration of the disruption.
• Because the work will be conducted at night, lighting will be in place and noise will be more noticeable, particularly around Cressy Street.

We are committed to minimising the impacts of this project for residents and businesses and will keep you up to date. We appreciate your understanding as we work to maintain our critical water infrastructure.

How to prepare for the shutdown:

• Before the shut down, fill your available water containers with drinking water to have in the fridge or available during the night
• Fill your bathtub with water to use for flushing toilets only
• If you usually have an evening shower, make sure you have it before 9pm on Saturday 10 July

Once the water supply is returned, let the water run for 2-3 minutes to clear. Your water is safe to drink but there may be some discoloured water when you first turn on your tap.
