Excavation for underground service conduits has also commenced.
Council is currently finalising the sewer pipeline design to meet Sydney Water's compliance requirements.
Revised Timeline
Phase 1 completion has been revised to January 2027, updated from our earlier estimate of September/October 2026. This adjustment is due to additional environmental and tree management approvals required for works within the Reserve.
