8. Infrastructure and Works Plan for Bannockburn Town
Centre
The Infrastructure and Works Plan for Bannockburn is shown on Plan A3.
8.1 Infrastructure & Works Plan
The sewer and water infrastructure requirements being managed by Barwon Water appear to be
catered for in relation to management of both existing and future requirements for the township. The
electrical and telecommunications also are managed to cater for existing and future requirements.
The existing drainage to the township only appears to adequately cater for the area contained to the
west side of High Street and flows to the south west outlet point at Bruce Creek.
The east side of the central township area has very little (if any) drainage infrastructure. On the
attached diagram in this section, the existing pipe drained area has been shaded, and the proposed
drainage has been shown on the east side of High Street. It would be desirable to allow the ultimate
outlet of drain to the same direction as the existing drainage, with provision for appropriate storm water
quality treatments implemented as part of this development. Details for these need to be finalized at
future design stages, but have to date included treatments such as swales, retention basins, pollutant
traps, wetlands and treatment ponds.
