Works on the spillway at Skinners Flat Reservoir, 5km north of Wedderburn township, have been accelerated this week and completed ahead of schedule by council contractors and staff, Loddon Shire said this morning.
"Contracted engineers inspected the works at completion and are satisfied that the risk level associated with future rainfall events and spillway flows has been greatly reduced. The works include widening of the spillway and installation of 1100 tonnes of rock beaching. This is in addition to previous works undertaken, including lowering the spillway wall and installation of 500 tonnes of rock beaching. The before and after photos show the difference."
