Water Main Break - Richmond Avenue - Ballina

Ballina Shire Council's crews are attending to a water main break that has occurred on Richmond Avenue, Ballina this morning.

Water supply will be temporarily unavailable to properties on Richmond Avenue and some properties on Brunswick Street, south of River Street, while repairs are underway.

Our team will make every effort to resolve this matter as quickly as possible.

Council apologises for the inconvenience and will continue to provide updates via Council's website.

Here's some things to remember that will assist you during this outage:

  • During any water disruption it's important to leave your taps off as the water may return at any time.
  • When water returns it may be discoloured. This is due to sediment. Please run the tap until your water runs clear.
  • Your water may appear milky. This is caused by small air bubbles. Don't be alarmed it is not harmful, and will settle in a short period.

If you have any enquiries in regard to this matter please contact council's Water and Wastewater Section on 1300 864 444.
