The proposal to extend Yunderup Canals involves the construction of two additional canals. One canal is located to the east of the existing development on Lots 5, 6, 7 and 8 Kiap Road (17 .2 ha) and is aligned north-south, and the second canal is located to the north of the entrance to the existing development on Lot 18 Warma Way (5.7 ha) and is aligned northeast-southwest.
The proposed development will include 7.4 ha of new canal waterway, 160 residential lots, a local store with a petrol outlet, public open space, and local roads and pedestrian access ways.
The construction of the new canals also involves some remedial works on the existing canals such as dredging of the entrance channel (already done by the proponent), filling of certain sections so that the depth profile is uniform, and appropriate siting and relocation of culvert connections. The lots to be created would be connected to reticulated sewerage, as are the established lots, and stormwater runoff would pass through silt traps prior to discharge into the canal system.
