SA Water Infrastructure

In reply to Mr TARZIA (Hartley) (22 March 2015).

The Hon. S.E. CLOSE (Port Adelaide—Minister for Education and Child Development, Minister for Higher Education and Skills):

On 7 March 2016, four bursts occurred on a 450mm cast-iron water main in the north eastern suburbs (two in Campbelltown, one in Paradise and one in Newton).

All of the bursts were repaired by Thursday 10 March 2016 and associated remedial work completed. All customers whose water supply was affected by the burst had water supply to their properties restored on 10 March 2016.

As a result of system changes to isolate the damaged water main, some customers are experiencing pressure changes to their water supply. SA Water is encouraging customers who experience any pressure changes to contact its customer service centre so that impacted customers can be directly identified.
