A precautionary boil water notice has been issued for all City of Melbourne water customers, including City of West Melbourne water customers.

We are aware that some areas have no water pressure or low water pressure.

A water main break has occurred, but its exact location is unknown at this time. Crews are working to locate the break and make repairs as quickly as possible. 

As a precaution, we advise that all water used for drinking, cooking, making ice, brushing teeth, or washing dishes be boiled.  A rolling boil of one minute is sufficient.  As an alternative, bottled water may be used. 

This precautionary boil water notice will remain in effect until the problem has been corrected and testing confirms that the water is safe to drink. We will distribute another notification at that time.

City of Melbourne services water customers in the following communities:

West Melbourne is a wholesale customer of Melbourne.
