Blayney Shire Council

Stormwater Drainage

Council maintains a variety of stormwater drainage assets, including pipes, culverts, kerb and gutter, drainage channels and detention basins.

Council manages a routine maintenance program, and regularly inspects and maintains these drainage structures and repairs them as the need arises.

During large storms, many of the pipes and culverts can become full and overflow. The system is unable to cater for all large storm events and it is intended that overflow water then flows along streets and roads. Members of the public should not be alarmed should they see storm water flowing along roads.
