Public impacts during construction
The roof will be replaced in 4 stages with each stage being completed before moving to the next stage. During the work there will be some noise and dust during the removal and replacement of the roof in each stage.
There will be several crane lifts for delivery of new roof sheeting and guttering, and removal of the existing infrastructure.
The first crane lift will be on the 24th of September.
During this time, the south bound lane of Eton street between the Pavilion and Flora Street will be closed for several hours and detours will be in place.
We will endeavour to do crane work on weekends where possible and we appreciate your patience during this important work.
