We’ve received reports of discoloured water in various locations across Queanbeyan, Jerrabomberra and Googong recently. First and foremost, we want to assure you that the water supply meets Australian Drinking Water Guidelines and is safe to drink. We are flushing water mains and working with Icon Water to investigate further.
New days and hours will soon be in place for our Waste Transfer Stations. Our busier transfer stations will be open longer and on more days. The changes make the hours more consistent across the transfer stations. All QPRC waste facilities will now be closed on NSW public holidays. Find out more about the new hours.

Mulch at the Queanbeyan Waste Minimisation Centre will only be available for purchase until mid-August 2026. Compost, made from the green-lidded FOGO bin waste, will continue to be available for purchase.
Project background
Stormwater on Henderson Road currently drains to an open channel within land owned by Transport for NSW. Council is responsible for the management of the easement, and the current arrangement has led to delays in maintenance and operational activities. This has led to stormwater issues for local properties.
To address these concerns, we are constructing a new stormwater main to redirect stormwater to an existing stormwater pipe. We are also installing a gross pollutant trap to improve stormwater quality.
Project update
The contractor began works within Henderson Road from 27 April.
From 11 June (weather permitting) – Henderson Road will re-open to traffic heading west (from Crest Road to McKeahnie Street), however the works zone will extend to the area shown in yellow.
Eastbound traffic using Henderson Road will continue to divert to Uriarra Road via McKeahnie Street and Crest Road (green line). Access to the community garden will be restored.
All property access within the work area will be maintained, however vehicles exiting driveways will be restricted to left-turn movements only.
Areas shown in red will be closed for the duration of the works for safety reasons. Path users will need to divert along the blue line during this period.
