Gawler Belt: Paternoster, Kentish, Redbanks and Twartz Roads
Upgrading our wastewater network in Reid, Willaston, Gawler Belt and Roseworthy

Construction is now underway to install approximately 7.5 kilometres of new wastewater mains across Reid, Willaston, Gawler Belt, and Roseworthy, along with a new pump station on Davidson Road in Reid.
This new infrastructure will help provide reliable wastewater services to existing customers and support continued growth in the Roseworthy area.

What to expect
- changed traffic arrangements will be in place across the area until October 2026
- work may take place during the day, at night or on weekends to help maintain schedule and minimise disruption
- you may notice some noise, vibration and dust during construction
- we’ll continue working closely with the community to minimise impacts wherever possible.
