We’re working on a project to replace degraded underground pipes along Bath Street. These include a watercourse pipe and water, stormwater and sewer pipelines.
Once the new pipes have been installed, we intend to upgrade the surface of Bath Street to make the street more pedestrian friendly.
Location of the work
Work is continuing on Bath Street in stages, as shown in our Timeline Overview map below.
Minimising disruption
We have sequenced the work to lessen the disruption to affected people as much as possible, and have coordinated this project with other major construction work in the CBD and upcoming city events.
Pedestrian access will be maintained – so you can still visit all your favourite Bath Street businesses.
Timeframes
All Bath Street pipe replacement work is scheduled for completion by the end of April 2025, while road finishing work is scheduled until the end of October 2025.
