Brief description
SA Water looks after 27,000 kilometres of pipeline across Adelaide and throughout the state to deliver safe, clean water to South Australian households and businesses. SA Water is performing regular maintenance and replacing ageing pipes all over the year. SA Water wants to reduce the impact of bursts and leaks on our community and deliver a reliable service to their customers. Scheduled maintenance needs to be informed to customers as well as people passing through the site. This data provides the services carried out in the past.
Major Faults include three fault types: Burst: Water erupting or gushing from the ground. Usually found on, or near a road (however, some pipes run through open public spaces and private land).
Major Leak: Visible leaks coming from the road surface (not metal access plates) on main roads only, including all roads in Adelaide's CBD and North Adelaide.
Water Off: Often this will be because SA Water turned the water supply off to allow crews to mend damaged pipes - water supply disruptions often follow a major burst.
