The public road between Hume Dam Village and the dam may also be closed at times so large equipment can be moved to and from the dam wall.
"Fishing and boating will not be allowed within the restricted zone upstream of the dam wall at any time during the work as diving activities will be undertaken," a spokesman said.
"We understand there could be some inconvenience during this work and are seeking cooperation from the community as the upgrades are completed."
