Queensland bulk water authority Seqwater has appointed global engineering and infrastructure advisory firm Aurecon and specialist power and water consulting firm Entura to support the Sideling Creek Dam upgrade.

Aurecon and Entura are partnering to deliver detailed design advisory for the upgrade of Sideling Creek Dam. The appointment follows a dam safety review and recent completion of complementary investigations and preliminary design of the upgrade work.

Sideling Creek Dam is located in the Moreton Bay regional area, approximately 24 km north of Brisbane. The 23 metre high zoned earthfill dam was built in 1969 and upgraded in 1984. It consists of a 500 metre long embankment main dam and an 8 metre high, 70 metre long embankment saddle dam.
