Hinchinbrook Shire Council wishes to advise Macknade residents of a planned water supply outage due to the hydrant refurbishment program at Bullock Paddock Road, weather permitting.
Works will take place between 9.00am to 5.00pm Wednesday 24 September 2025.
Temporary water interruptions may occur during the works and will affect 18 properties.
These essential upgrades are part of Council’s commitment to improving water reliability and service delivery across the Shire.
During the works, temporary water service interruptions may occur. Once supply is restored, residents may experience discoloured water.
If this happens, Council recommends flushing taps for up to five minutes or until the water runs clear. Flushing water can be reused on gardens or lawns.
Council appreciates the community’s patience and cooperation during these works.
For further information, please phone Council’s customer service centre on 4776 4600.
