Snow Street Pump Station – In Progress

In response to the devastating February 2022 natural disaster, Lismore City Council is working hard to enhance the community’s resilience during future flooding events.

To facilitate this, a new pump station will be constructed in South Lismore at Snow Street alongside a new stormwater drainage network to improve drainage to the pump station.

Funding Made possible under Flood Risk Management Infrastructure funding through the Northern Rivers Recovery and Resilience Program (NRRRP)
Status In progress
Timeframe Estimated start August 2025
Disaster AGRN1012

The new pump station will feature submersible electric pumps, enhanced by connectivity to a new fibre optic network designed for remote operation, monitoring and surveillance.

The pumping station will deliver extended access for emergency service personnel and the evacuation of residents and businesses, by keeping the roads open for longer.

Location: near junction of Wilson Street, East Street and Snow Street, South Lismore
