Yes, but in fairness they waited for the school holidays to start, never a good time I guess
Rock and a hard place really as the old iron water main was breaking constantly. I understand they are replacing the whole of the Douglas Road which finishes by the South city link bridge ? once they do that they are scheduled to replace te pipes in Whitethorn, Estate, Tramore Lawn and Belvedere Lawn final completion is Spring 2026.
