Australia’s first underground automated waste collection system in the new Maroochydore City Centre is moving closer to being switched on.
Construction of the collection station and Stage 1A of the underground pipe network including the link to the collection station is finished.
Group Executive Customer Engagement and Planning Services James Ruprai said the ENVAC technical experts required to commission the facility are in the country and out of quarantine and Sunshine Coast Council is extremely excited and proud to reach the commissioning phase of the innovative project.
“The Sunshine Coast is leading the nation with this sustainable and innovative technology. We are constructing Australia’s first, high-tech, underground automated waste collection system for a CBD,” Mr Ruprai said.
