Service Alert: Emergency Wastewater Repairs in Bull Creek

The Water Corporation has issued an urgent service alert for residents in the Bull Creek area. Emergency wastewater maintenance is currently underway on Bull Creek Drive to repair infrastructure impacted by recent weather conditions. Crews are on-site managing wastewater flows with specialized tankers to prevent further service interruptions.

As repairs progress, residents may experience ongoing impacts, including increased noise, localized odours, and additional vehicle movements in the vicinity. There is a standing request for residents to limit non-essential water use to alleviate pressure on the damaged system. Road users are advised to follow all traffic management signage and exercise caution around worksites. Repairs are described as complex and are expected to continue through the end of the month.

Motorists are reminded to remain vigilant as crews remove barriers and final inspections are completed.
