  Works will now commence on Monday 28 May 2018 instead of Monday 14 May as previously advised and will take up to two weeks to complete.

  Works will include the removal of existing slab pavers and the installation of a new concrete footpath which will be slightly wider than the existing footpath on the northern side of Princess Road, between Mountjoy Road and Marita Road.

If you are a resident or property owner in the project area, and your reticulation is damaged, the City will carry out all necessary repairs. However notification of any damage must be reported to the City within two weeks of completion of the work, as the City cannot accept liability after this time.
