Infrastructure resilience work - Mount Wandera
Completed in 2026
Council improved the resilience of infrastructure at the Mount Wandera telecommunications site, west of Moruya. The work included fireproofing cables, installing protective Colorbond fencing and improving the access road, drainage and surrounding vegetation management.
Mount Wandera is Eurobodalla’s main telecommunications site, supporting emergency services radio communications, mobile phone services, radio and television broadcasts, and Council’s water and sewer telemetry systems. The improvements will help protect this important infrastructure and support continued access to essential communications during emergencies.
The project followed extensive damage to the site during the 2019–20 bushfires, which disrupted emergency service communications and other telecommunications. The Australian Government provided $329,971 for Council’s work through the Protecting Our Communities (Disaster Resilience) program.
