Fire Hydrants
In this article
Fire hydrants are located throughout the municipality to give firefighters quick access to water. The traditional hydrants are usually on the nature strip and easily identified by their silver cover and red top. In urban areas, many of these traditional fire hydrants have been replaced with ground plugs, which are flat and square with a black lid.
Damaged fire hydrants
Wyndham City is responsible for damaged fire hydrants. We will arrange for a team member to investigate, provided the hydrant is not leaking or obstructed by anIllegally parked vehicle.
Leaking fire hydrants
The maintenance of damaged fire hydrants is typically the responsibility of the local water authority, which is Greater Western Water. They are responsible for ensuring that fire hydrants are in good working condition and readily available for use in emergencies.
If you notice a leaking or gushing fire hydrant, please report it directly to Greater Western Water.
