We have been delivering the Sawyers Bay - Three Waters Pipe Renewals Project for the Dunedin City Council (DCC) and are delighted to grow our involvement with the Water and Wastewater Treatment Plants Upgrade. We are really looking forward to continuing working with the DCC team and reinforcing the city’s three waters infrastructure.”
