In Summary

  • Council is finalising preparations for Stage 1 of the Lenne Street Drainage Upgrade project to address stormwater issues in Mooroopna.
  • The project, prompted by the October 2022 flooding event, aims to enhance the stormwater drainage network to manage heavy rain more effectively.
  • Residents in the Lenne Street area are invited to a drop-in session on Monday 13 January, 5.00pm–6.30pm, at the Mooroopna Education and Activity Centre for project updates and questions.

Following the riverine flooding event in October 2022, the Lenne Street drainage catchment in Mooroopna was severely impacted. Council has identified improvement opportunities for the existing stormwater drainage network to mitigate the rain event issues in the area during sudden heavy downpours. The project has been split into stage 1 and 2 for the delivery of the stormwater drainage improvements for the community. Click here for more information.
