01
The problem
An ageing cast-iron main under live suburban streets, with gas, telco and power crowding the corridor. Residents could not lose water for more than a few hours.
02
The solution
We potholed every crossing, ran a temporary bypass main and replaced the line in 100 m sections. Traffic management and night shutdowns kept outages under four hours.
03
The result
3.1 km of new PE main commissioned with zero service strikes. Every shutdown finished inside its window.
