Hinchinbrook Shire Council wishes to advise residents that a hydrant refurbishment program will be carried out in Lucinda, weather permitting.
Approximately 136 properties will have temporary water service outages during this program which will begin:
The following streets will be affected during this period:
These essential works are part of Council’s ongoing commitment to improving water pressure and fire safety infrastructure.
Once the water supply has been restored, residents may experience instances of discoloured water.
If discoloured water occurs, Council recommends flushing tap water for up to five minutes or until the water becomes clear. It is also recommended that any flushing water be used on your garden or lawn.
Council thanks the community for its patience as these works are being carried out. Call Council’s customer service centre on 4776 4600 or email council@hinchinbrook.qld.gov.au for more information.
