Road users and pedestrians are advised that temporary road closures will be in place on Hinder Street and Ernest Cavanagh Street from Thursday 11 October 2018 as work continues on the extension of Ernest Cavanagh Street.
The extension of Ernest Cavanagh Street will provide one lane of traffic in each direction, footpaths on both sides of the road, pedestrian crossings and on street parking bays. The temporary road closures on Hinder Street and Ernest Cavanagh Street will allow for the final layers of asphalting to be placed in the Hinder Street / Ernest Cavanagh Street intersection.
