The fate of the Barwon River Ovoid Sewer Aqueduct
David Le Lievre who is a member of our committee also wears several hats. One of which is being involved in trying to save a local heritage significant civil engineering structure that has served the Geelong communities for nearly a century. This heritage significant concrete structure spans 756m over the Barwon River floodplain from Breakwater to Marshall is under threat of being demolished by Barwon Water.
A Friends of Barwon River Ovoid Sewer Aqueduct has been formed in response to the demolition plans in an effort to save this structure.
