Mackay Regional Council will be undertaking service investigation works in Evan and Juliet streets, South Mackay.

The works will take place between Sunday, July 2, and Sunday, July 16 and will be completed as night works to minimise disruption to traffic and business in the area.

Council is in the detailed design phase for water main renewal projects in both areas and the works will include excavation works in specific areas to locate services.

Contractors HydroExcavac and SafeDig will complete the works on behalf of council.

Working hours will be between 6pm and 6am on the below dates:

  • Juliet Street – Sunday, July 2 to Thursday, July 6

  • Evan Street (between Prospect Street and Goldsmith Street) – Saturday, July 8 to Sunday July 16
  • Juliet Street – Saturday, July 8 to Sunday July 16

The investigation works will be completed predominantly in the parking lane, and residents are asked to not park in these areas on the above dates. Driveways are not expected to be interrupted.

Traffic control will be in place and motorists are asked to follow all signage in place. There will be some noise and dust due to plant and equipment on site.
