How it will affect you
Construction is planned in phases from September 2023 for approximately 3 years.
Road works will be limited to 09:00 - 15:00 on weekdays to avoid peak traffic periods. Traffic will be accommodated using temporary detours and walkways for pedestrians while access to properties and businesses will be maintained.
Work will still impact traffic and cause delays. Motorists are urged to consider public transport, ride-sharing and lift club options.
The City realises the inconvenience involved and appreciates the patience of everyone affected.
