Road users and pedestrians are advised that closures on Gungahlin Place will be in place from Sunday night for asphalting works as part of the Hibberson Street shared zone project.
The ACT Government is creating a safer, more vibrant, better connected town centre for the people of Gungahlin. The transformation of Hibberson Street into a one-way shared zone will deliver a safer pedestrian focused streetscape with reduced vehicle speeds, one-way travel and safer pedestrian crossings.
