The works will re-direct overland flow above the Fishery Point Road construction site into the stormwater system.
The works are in line with the approved construction plans for the estate.
Council completed an investigation at the estate following a complaint about runoff.
Erosion and sediment controls were also installed, and all directions were completed to the satisfaction of council.
A council spokesperson said the management of water on construction sites, and any pollutants within it, is an ongoing issue due to the dynamic nature of construction sites.
"This has been exacerbated by several high rainfall events."
