Construction started in February 2026 and will be complete by mid-2026, weather and site conditions permitting.
Majority of works will take place at night, when traffic volumes are lowest. This will ensure everyone’s safety and also reduce the overall time to complete the works. Night works can be scheduled 7pm to 5am, Sunday to Thursday.
Some works will take place during the day, 7am to 5pm, Monday to Friday.
Every effort will be made to complete particularly noisy works prior to 11pm, where possible.
If you live in the area or are travelling through the intersection, you may experience:
- increased noise, truck movements, low level dust and vibrations, and light from mobile light towers
- changes in traffic conditions including minor traffic delays, reduced speed limits and temporary lane closures.
Traffic control will be on site during working hours to help you move through the area.
A temporary lay down area will be established within Council verge, directly opposite the Sexton Street Park car park. This area will accommodate two site caravans and some construction materials and equipment. The space will be clearly delineated and managed to ensure safe access and minimal disruption to people travelling through the area.
Some trees will be removed on the Sexton Street bend to allow for construction of the new footpath and to widen the road. We will replant trees within the local area, in line with Council’s commitment to keep our suburbs cooler, shadier and greener.
