About
The Greenvale Reservoir is a reservoir formed by the Greenvale Dam, an earth-filled embankment dam across the upper Yuroke Creek, also fed by an off-stream storage, located in the suburb of Greenvale and to the west of Roxburgh Park, in the northern suburbs of Melbourne, Victoria, Australia. Completed in 1973, the impoundment serves as a source of supply of potable water for Greater Metropolitan Melbourne. The reservoir and dam is operated by Melbourne Water.
