Award winning delivery! Congratulations to our Water team on winning the Institute of Public Works Engineering Australasia (Queensland and Northern Territory) Excellence Awards in the $5 million - $10 million project category earlier this month. To help cater for current and future growth in the Ipswich area, Urban Utilities, Downer and WSP in Australia (DOWSP) delivered a new major pump station on a vacant Urban Utilities site near Mount Juillerat Drive and School Road in Redbank Plains. The pump station was completed in March 2024 and supplies water to Redbank Plains, the Ripley Valley, the Swanbank industrial area and beverage giant Frucor Suntory’s new manufacturing facility in Redbank Plains, which also opened its doors in 2024. A key feature of the project was the team’s approach to ensuring that the community was at the forefront of its planning, with bespoke engagement and consultation tools developed to support the culturally diverse local residents living directly adjacent to the construction. The result? The delivery of a once-in-a-generation critical infrastructure project in partnership with the community that will enhance water service reliability for residents, businesses and industry in the Ipswich area now and into the future. A special thank you to IPWEA Queensland & Northern Territory (IPWEA-QNT) for this recognition and to everyone involved for your contribution towards the successful delivery on the project. As one of Australia’s leading water services providers, we love to celebrate the combined achievements of our people and customers in delivering important infrastructure that helps keep communities connected and thriving.
