About the event
The Bryn Estyn Water Treatment Plant is greater Hobart's primary source of drinking water, providing an average 60% of the water supply needs annually. It was originally constructed in 1962, with capacity augmentations completed in 1972 and 1992. The plant is currently being upgraded to ensure it can continue to provide high quality drinking water and meet projected demand for years to come. Come along and learn about the Bryn Estyn Upgrade Project which aims to:
- Lower the risk of water restrictions in the greater Hobart region
- Improve operational efficiency by increasing capacity and modernising infrastructure
- Enable the reliable supply of 160 million litres of water per day
- in-build the capacity to expand the water supply demand in future
- Provide the highest quality drinking water for Tasmanians.
The site visit will be followed by social time over drinks and nibbles back in Hobart city centre.
