Today the taps were turned on to the reservoirs marking the end of the construction phase for the Curlewis Pipeline Project.

There is still testing and commissioning to take place before water will be turned on to residences and businesses in the township of Curlewis, which is scheduled for end of May.

By connecting Curlewis to Gunnedah's town water supply, it will greatly improve water security and quality for the village.

Gunnedah Shire Mayor Jamie Chaffey said, "This major infrastructure upgrade for Curlewis will go a long way to improving the liveability of the town, including economic growth and beautification of the area. Council wants to ensure Curlewis remains a stable part of Gunnedah Shire's future."
