The City of Kingston is continuing to invest strongly in essential local infrastructure, with a major road reconstruction and drainage upgrade planned for Beilby Street in Moorabbin.

This project represents a significant commitment to improving safety, accessibility and resilience for the local community, while addressing drainage issues and renewing ageing road and pedestrian infrastructure.

Kingston Mayor Cr Georgina Oxley said investing in roads and stormwater infrastructure was one of Council’s most important responsibilities.

“Good roads, safe footpaths and reliable drainage are essential services that support our neighbourhoods every day,” Cr Oxley said.

“This upgrade will not only improve the condition of Beilby Street but will also strengthen the drainage network to better manage stormwater and changing rainfall patterns.”

Beilby Street has been prioritised for rehabilitation following condition inspections and drainage assessments. The works will ensure contemporary levels of service are met and that stormwater assets are better equipped for future rainfall events.

The project includes full reconstruction of the asphalt road pavement, construction of new drainage pipes and pits, and the renewal of surrounding concrete infrastructure such as footpaths, vehicle crossings, pram crossings, kerbs and channels.

Following a competitive public tender process, Council has awarded the contract to Jaydo Construction Pty Ltd, with the works valued at $1.93 million (ex GST).

Council thanks residents for their patience while works are underway and will work closely with the contractor to minimise disruption and keep the community informed throughout construction.
