To reduce the risk of blockages from tree roots, SA Water offers advice and a Healthy Pipes online tool to help South Australians plant the right tree in the right area of their property Colin said the tree root mass weighed around half a tonne and measured five metres in length “Due to the sheer weight of the root mass in Modbury we needed the help of our excavator to safely pull the cluster out of the chamber – with our crews achieving this in one clean attempt “Our cleaning also yielded a few more surprises such as 200 kilograms of wet wipes and several metres of rope serving as a timely reminder to the community to consider what they’re flushing down the toilet."
