Interruptions

Water and sewer main renewals - various locations

• Various locations
• September 2025 to early 2026

The following program of renewals work is now underway as part of our $100 million Water and Sewer Upgrade Program. This work is being carried out to ensure our critical infrastructure can serve local communities for years to come. 

There will be no interruption to your water supply while the following works are being completed, except for a short period when your water supply will be transferred to the new main. Our contractor will let you know when this will occur.

You may notice lower water pressure from time-to-time during works. Impacted customers have been notified. 

Some traffic management may be in place for works.

Echuca fluoride system offline

• Echuca
• From April 2025 until further notice

As part of Coliban Water’s regular upgrade and maintenance program, the fluoride system at the Echuca Water Treatment Plant is currently offline while the unit is being replaced.

This means fluoride will not be added to the Echuca water supply until the work is complete.

Fluoride does not contribute to your water’s safety. Your water remains safe to drink.

For more information on why fluoride is added to drinking water and the oral health benefits, visit the Department of Health's website at health.vic.gov.au/water/water-fluoridation. And for other ways to help support dental health, visit health.vic.gov.au/water/unfluoridated-areas 

We encourage community members to speak with their dentist or healthcare provider if they have any concerns.

We expect the new fluoride system at the Echuca Water Treatment Plant will be installed by mid-2026.
