Works update

Due to recent wet weather, temporary fencing will be in place along the embankment adjacent to the public parking area on Jeffery Court until further notice. This is necessary to ensure safety and to prevent erosion and sediment run‑off following rainfall.

During periods of rainfall, conditions at the site may change quickly. This may result in temporary restrictions to parking availability while safety and environmental protection measures are in place.

Landscaping: has been delayed by weather. Preparation works have been done and landscaping contractor will be on site from 30 March.
Boom Gate: has been procured. Installation will occur following finalisation of light pole foundations.
Benches: procured and will be installed after landscaping has been completed.

We appreciate the patience and understanding of the community and visitors while we work to deliver this project.
