Happy Valley Reservoir built between 1892 and 1897 at a cost of £151,000 and became Adelaide’s third major water source after Thorndon Park and Hope Valley. The old township was relocated; its cemetery remains near the dam wall. Fed by a 5 km tunnel from Clarendon Weir, it began filling in 1896. Despite modest capacity, it supplies over 40 % of Adelaide’s water through the city’s largest treatment plant. #AdelaideHistory #HappyValley #SAWater #SouthAustralia #Infrastructure

#sawater turned the water off at 9:45pm, no warning, “emergency works”. I call bullshit, they were putting up detour signs at 4pm. Anyway, rinsing your toothpaste out with Sanpellegrino is really weird.
