George and Howick St Roundabout Update 1 March

The installation of the new kerb and gutter was completed this week. Crews are now commencing excavation of the old pavement material in preparation for the new base. The footpath near the Church is also being refurbished.

VMS boards are at key locations near the intersection advising motorists of the closure. Provision for u-turns are available on all approaches.

Pedestrians continue to have access to businesses, however there is some impact to parking near the work site and for those that fall within the work zone.

The temporary carpark at the old Clancy Motors site is now open. It can be accessed directly from Howick Street or from the RSL carpark. There are 35 spaces available for 2 hour parking to allow customers to access nearby businesses in George and Howick St while the work occurs.

Council is also advertising the full closure on local radio, along with a separate ad to advise that all businesses near the work site are open for business.
