Project features
Project features for the Eagleby Master Drainage Upgrade include:
- installation of 2.6 kilometres of new drainage infrastructure, including larger pipes, maintenance holes and culverts
- resurfacing parts of the road impacted by the works
- driveway and fencing reconstruction works (where required)
- replacement of kerb and footpath (where required)
- vegetation removal and tree trimming (where required)
- and replacement/relocation of services and restoration activities.
Project timeline
Works commenced on the Cowper Avenue catchment in January 2023, followed by the Kelly Street catchment in March 2023.
In early March 2024, works on the Eagleby master drainage project were placed on hold when the contractor responsible for the works, Allroads, was placed into administration.
In May 2024, BMD took over as the newly appointed contractor to complete all open works. These works concluded December 2024.
BMD successfully secured the new tender for stage 2 works. These works are expected to commence in mid-February 2025, and should take approximately 10 months to complete (weather and contractor conditions permitting).

Given the nature of the work, unfortunately some impacts are unavoidable. This includes but are not limited to:
- increased noise, dust, and vibration
- temporary footpath closures or diversions, and/or temporary bus stop relocations (changes will be signed)
- temporary loss of street parking and driveway access (affected residents will be notified in advance)
