LinkWater will commence major internal and external refurbishment of the Aspley Reservoir in March 2011. The work is expected to take four months, requiring some heavy machinery. The reservoir will be emptied and specially modified to enable internal access for machinery and personnel. Water supplies will be serviced by alternative reservoirs, supported by valve modifications to regulate pressure and flow to Aspley and surrounding areas. Although general public access is not permitted, additional security and some traffic management will be adopted during the works.

As part of our commitment to continuously improve the water transport system, LinkWater will refurbish Kuraby Reservoir that supplies your drinking water. This work is needed to maintain the high standard of your water supply. All possible steps to prevent impacts of this work on customers have been taken. Your drinking water will continue to comply with Australian Drinking Water Guidelines and, as usual, will be tested regularly. LinkWater thanks you for your cooperation and patience while these critical improvements to your water system are being made.

LinkWater will undertake extensive valve and pit upgrades of the Logan network in the first half of 2011. Traffic control will be in place at most sites to ensure safety of motorists, pedestrians, LinkWater personnel and contractors. Localised noise and dust may be experienced at certain sites. No night works are expected unless required due to traffic considerations. LinkWater will liaise with all stakeholders when planning work to ensure minimum disruption during the works.

In the first half of 2011, LinkWater will replace inoperable valves and install new infrastructure in existing trunk water mains. These works aim to improve the operational capability of the existing network.
