The City of Yarra said this will ensure the sustainable and long-term health of this green space for the local community.
The project includes the building of an underground storage tank, treatment system and pump station which will distribute water to Curtain Square.
The implementation of the stormwater harvesting system will also mitigate and reduce flood risks to the local area.
This initiative supports the environmental and climate objectives outlined in the City of Yarra’s Council Plan 20212025 through sustainable consumption and preservation of its natural resources.
The project is supported by the Victorian Government’s Integrated Water Management Program.
Works are scheduled to commence mid-2023.
