DescriptionConstruction of Cordeaux Dam commenced in 1918. Cordeaux Dam is a curved dam with an unlined side spillway on the left abutment. Cement and metal were transported to the site from the main southern railway 21km away, via a 5km steam operated aerial ropeway built across the Nepean Gorge. The final journey was completed by a narrow gauge rail line.The dam was completed in 1926 at a cost of about $2.5 million. Cordeaux was upgraded in 1988 ($3m) with a system of drains in the wall and foundations.
