Temporary Changes to Parking Zones – Cook Street, Lithgow

17 February, 2021

 

Lithgow City Council are advising motorists of a temporary change to the parking zones in Cook Street, between Main Street Lane and Mort Street, Lithgow.

In order for roofing repairs to be completed on the Old TAFE building located on the corner of Mort Street and Cook Street, Lithgow, part of Main Street Lane will be closed to through traffic for approximately six (6) weeks (completion expected at the end of March / early April 2021).

To enable delivery vehicles to access businesses on the southern side of Main Street between Cook Street and Burns Lane (including the Woolworths loading dock), heavy vehicles will be required to access Main Street Lane via Cook Street.

To enable the delivery vehicles to safely access Main Street Lane, some amendments have been made to the current Emergency Personnel parking and 15 minute parking zones on the eastern side of Cook Street.

The Emergency Personnel parking zone has been relocated further toward Mort Street, with the implementation of a No Stopping Zone where the Emergency Personnel parking zone was has occurred.  This will allow adequate turning space for large vehicles to safely access Main Street Lane.

It is expected that works will be completed by late March / early April 2021, at which time the temporary parking zones will revert back to the previous arrangements.
