Water Infrastructure / Pumped Raw Water Pipeline
The Toowoomba Pipeline is a $187 million project developed by the Toowoomba Pipeline Alliance for LinkWater Projects. The Toowoomba Pipeline has a length of 38km and a capacity of 14,200 mega litres a year and will secure long term water supply for Toowoomba in South East Queensland.
The Toowoomba Pipeline project was proposed in 2006 by the Toowoomba Water Supply Task Force to secure water supply for the city and adjoining areas. It is currently operated and maintained by Link Water Projects.
βIn its first year the plant will deliver 10,000 mega litres of water to Toowoomba.β A fund of A$20m was sanctioned by the Queensland Government in January 2008 for speedy completion of the design and investigations phase. An additional amount of A$167m was committed by the government in July 2008 to complete the project by 2010.
The project was designed and constructed by joint venture Toowoomba Pipeline Alliance of LinkWater Projects, Clough, Diversified, and AECOM. As a partner, AECOM was responsible for environmental assessment and approvals, detailed design and documentation, land access, geological and geotechnical engineering, and community engagement and stakeholder management.
