Christmas-New Year break for Hunter Street rehabilitation, Brassall

19 December 2018

Rehabilitation works on Hunter St, Brassall, will halt from 22 December to 6 January, 2019 to minimise impact to local businesses and residents during the festive season.

As many motorists are aware, as part of Ipswich City Council’s continued road and pedestrian safety improvements, council is undertaking rehabilitation works on Hunter St (between Pine Mountain Road and Rowan Drive).

All service relocations have now been finalised.

In recent weeks, night works were carried out to enable construction to be performed under appropriate safety measures. Day works are now in place until mid-February 2019 with the final works to take place at night in late February.

Hunter St had been showing signs of wear and tear, which is not surprising given that in 2017, the busy thoroughfare recorded an average of 15,000 vehicles each weekday.

When completed, the $3.5m project will feature:

* New road resurfacing from kerb to kerb, including sections of full pavement replacement

* Sections of kerb and channel replaced including some driveways and footpaths

* Line marking

* New tree plantings

If you have any questions or concerns during this project, please do not hesitate to contact council:

*         Phone: 07 3810 6666 during office hours (8:00am to 4:30pm)
