Sale Water Treatment Plant
This water treatment plant supplies fresh, clean drinking water to over 70,000 customers and waste water services to more than 63,000 customers in Victoria. A major water supplier, they manage an infrastructure network consisting of 15 water treatment plants, as well as an extensive network of water and sewer mains and wastewater treatment plants. As part of upgrading works to more efficiently supply and conserve water, new pipelines and pump stations were constructed.

Project Challenges
- Selected decking had to support water tanks and personnel access, taking decking deflection into account.
- Stair treads and landings had to be customised to the structure.
