Roma Avenue, Garibaldi Street, Omonia Drive, Old Don Road and Don Road Service Road

The works are scheduled to commence on 1 March 2022 (subject to weather and staff availability due to the impact of Covid-19) and should take approximately 9 months to complete subject to favourable conditions.

Please be aware that while we will make every attempt to keep disruptions to a minimum, due to the nature and extent of the works there are likely to be some disruptions to access and traffic flow. This will occur during normal construction working hours from 7.30 am to 4.30 pm on weekdays.

Emergency access for local residents will remain a priority however; there will be occasions throughout the day when traffic flow will be temporarily halted for up to 15 minutes.

Where the proposed works affect a driveway, the affected area will be reinstated as close as possible to its current standard. The contractor undertaking the works will inform residents of any disruptions to driveway access during the works.

During this period could you please ensure no vehicles are left parked on the roadside when your household (or organisation) is left unattended.

As there will be workers and equipment operating in close proximity to traffic, for the safety of all we request that you:

Keep your speed under 40km/h;

Be prepared to stop as you approach the works; and

Follow directions given by works personnel and / or traffic controllers.

As a matter of added safety, children are advised to keep away from the works throughout the duration.

During construction works, we request that:

People do not vandalise, ride bicycles, or walk on new concrete.

Motor vehicles do not drive over any new concrete for 3-5 days after pouring.

Heavy vehicles do not drive over any new concrete for 14 days after pouring.

Please inform any others within your household (or organisation) likely to be affected by these works of the above details.
