Water refill stations community survey

In 2015 the ACT Government completed the installation of 30 'Water on Tap' water refill stations in parks and public places across Canberra. Click here for the list of locations.

Each water refill station has two nozzles to refill water bottles as well as a drinking fountain. They are wheelchair accessible and have been designed to be easily located in crowded areas. At some locations they also include a drinking bowl for dogs.

The community is also able to hire ‘Water on Tap’ portable water refill stations for their own event for free. There are eight stations available and they can be hired by emailing National Mailing and Marketing on hpb@nationalmailing.com.au

The ACT Government would like community feedback on the water refill stations as part of an evaluation and suggest new locations for any future water refill stations.

You can provide your feedback by completing this short survey by 5 pm Wednesday 4 May 2016.
