To ensure works can be completed as efficiently as possible and to minimise impacts on traffic, works will now be carried out Sunday to Thursday between 7pm and 6am. We’re working at night to minimise impacts on traffic and to ensure the safety of our workers. In the event these works need to be rescheduled due to weather conditions or other circumstances outside of our control, we will update this notification.

Additional utility service investigation works are required in other areas along South Road. You will receive notifications relating to these works closer to the date.
