500.2025.0061 Passage Avenue and Neerim Crescent Watermain Upgrade

Summary and scope

The existing water supply infrastructure in Passage Avenue, Shute Harbour Qld 4802, is aging and suffering frequent breakages requiring emergency repairs. Whitsunday Regional Council (the Principal) prepared a design for a new robust water supply arrangement for Passage Avenue and Neerim Crescent, which will ensure uninterrupted water supply and improved water quality and pressure. The Principal requires a suitably qualified Contractor (the Contractor) to construct new watermain along Passage Avenue and a part of Neerim Crescent, as per the Scope of Works (the Works). The Passage Avenue section of works comprises construction of a replacement watermain, largely within the existing alignment, requiring decommissioning and removal of the old watermain.
