Water service interruption for Holloways Beach

Published: 5th May 2026. (Note: information was correct at date of publication but may have since been changed or superseded.)

Residents in Holloways Beach are being advised that their water supply will be disrupted to allow for emergency repairs to be undertaken.

It is expected that the emergency works will be completed within two hours.

Following a series of water main breaks this morning, Council has determined that the pressure valve that controls water flow for the entire suburb is not operating properly.

This was causing higher than normal pressure in the Holloways Beach network, causing multiple water main breaks.

The water needs to be switched off to allow for replacement of the valve, which will prevent breakages from continuing and reduce the chance of further outages.

Further updates are available on Council’s interruption page.

Council apologises for the inconvenience caused and appreciates the patience of residents during these works.
