Melbourne Water is currently preparing our 2026 Price Submission which outlines our plans, services, investments and prices for the next five-year period (2026 to 2031).

As well as developing this five-year plan, we’ve been talking to our customers, partners, and local communities about what they would like to see in the Submission.

We’ve now developed a considered, prudent and efficient high-level draft plan which we’ve released via a ‘public playback’ summary document. This public playback is an important opportunity to hear community feedback prior to finalising our Submission.

The playback document summarises:

  • what we’ve heard and learnt from customers  
  • our investment proposals 
  • emerging Melbourne Water outcomes  
  • proposed bill impacts and price paths
  • our vulnerability package.
