Details
We’re scanning the road surface to locate essential services such as power cables and water pipes. Where services are found, we’ll cut the road seal, confirm depth and position, then resurface.
The investigation works are expected to take four days to complete. Completing these investigations will help prevent future delays and ensures we can plan construction with as little disruption as possible.
The work will involve:
- Investigating underground services on Petrie Street between Averill Street and Warden Street. We’ll also be locating underground services on Stapletons Road, Chancellor Street, Julius Terrace and Petrie Street. We will be working on one street at a time.
- Using hydro excavation and other low-impact techniques to locate key services.
- Collecting information to support future planning and design for service upgrades.
- A one-way traffic management system.
Please expect some disruption to access in the working area. If you have any specific property access requirements (e.g., medical visits, home help, large vehicle access, deliveries, planned works), please let us know.
Noise
There may be increased noise, dust and vibrations during work but it shouldn’t impact on your power, water, gas or phone services.
Safety
Safety is our biggest priority so please keep children and pets away from worksites.
Bins
Please put your bins out as usual before 6am on your collection day. Our crew will move and return them if needed.
