From January 2025, approximately 2,400 metres of new water mains are being installed in Elizabeth North and Davoren Park to secure reliable services to existing customers as well as new and future customers.

New gate valve chambers will also be constructed along the alignment, which will help maintain water pressure.

Where will work occur

The pipeline will be installed along sections of:

  • Petherton Road
  • Heytesbury Road
  • Meadows Lane
  • Gerald Boulevard
  • under the Gawler Rail Corridor to Donnington Road
  • Old Sarum Road
  • Whiteparish Road
  • Woodford Road
  • across Main North Road to the intersection of Midway Road and McKenzie Road.


What to expect

We will work with potentially impacted property owners, businesses and road users before and during our works to minimise disruptions as much as possible.

We’re exploring all options to quickly complete this important work while minimising traffic interruptions, road closures and detours.

Some work will happen at night to reduce impacts on road users. Those affected will be notified in advance.


Please note, timeline dates are subject to change based on program requirements and weather conditions
