Works update 13 July 2022
With wet weather being a dominant feature, construction has continued on the Wongawilli Road project. Depending on conditions we are estimating to complete the project at the end of October 2022.
Current work includes:
- Western end - The construction crew are currently building the end of Wongawilli Road.
- Swale - Once completed the crew will then excavate a swale to manage drainage of stormwater in major rain events. They will also build an “earth bund wall” that is designed to divert stormwater towards drainage pits.
- Kerb & gutter - After these major drainage works are completed, kerb and gutter and driveways will be constructed, and drainage pits and lintels will be installed. Lintels are made from concrete and used as an inlet to a roadside kerb stormwater pit. Headwalls will also be installed and the creek banks will be reinforced.
- Asphalt - To finish, a smooth asphalt surface will be rolled onto stabilised road base.
- Turf - Landscaping will include turfing the whole area and the site will be given a final clean-up.
During these works, entry to the RFS station and the community hall should not be affected. If for some reason they are, Council and the RFS will be contacted.
