Holland Street road closure for drainage upgrades
Published: 13 Sep 2023
A section of Holland Street, from Lagoon Street to Barton Street, will be closed completely to through traffic while drainage works are completed.
Seaforth Civil will be completing works on behalf of council to improve drainage in the area to help reduce flood risk to properties in significant wet weather events.
Stage one of the Barton Street drainage upgrade project began in June in the Botanic Gardens parkland area.
The second stage includes a road closure in Holland Street which will begin on Wednesday, September 20. The closed section of Holland Street will only be accessible to residents in that section.
Works will be undertaken between 6.30am and 6pm, Monday to Friday, and some weekend work may also be required.
The existing Lagoon Street bus stop, located near the Holland Street entrance has temporarily moved to Mackenzie Street.
Pedestrians and motorists can expect detours in the area of the works and are asked to please follow all signage.
The speed limit will remain temporarily reduced to 40 km/h on Lagoon Street.
Holland Street is expected to reopen to traffic in late December, weather permitting.
