We intend to undertake the planned works within the northbound lane, closest to the median island.
During this period, there may be an increase in dust, noise and vibration levels. We will make every effort to minimise any inconvenience and to manage these effects as responsibly as possible.
Some traffic disruption is anticipated. To reduce the impact on road users, these activities are scheduled to take place during night-time hours.
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.
