Maranoa Regional Council would like to advise residents that sewer manhole inspections will begin this week and will be underway for approximately four weeks (weather permitting).

Council staff will require access to residents’ properties to assess manholes. This will only be a visual inspection and will be undertaken once the manhole lid is removed (this will take approximately 30 minutes).


Programmed maintenance inspections on sewer manholes is undertaken to determine their condition. These inspections allow Council to plan for a future renewal program and identify whether rehabilitation or replacement will be required.


If manholes are buried or covered, Council will raise manholes to surface level to ensure they are easily accessible at all times. Should this be required, Council staff will liaise with residents on a suitable time to undertake this work.


Council apologises for any inconvenience and thanks residents for their patience.


A map outlining the location of manholes to be inspected can be found on Council’s website.


Should you have any queries or concerns, please contact Council’s Sewerage Team on 1300 007 662.
