UPDATE - Lamb Street, Murgon - CBD Footpath, Kerb and Channel Replacement – 24-05-20
Council is pleased to provide an update on the progress of the replacement of Murgon’s CBD footpath along Lamb Street (between Krebs and Gore Streets).
Funded through the Queensland Government’s 2019-21 Works for Queensland program (W4Q R3) and South Burnett Regional Council. Northern construction works have reached practical completion, with continuation of the southern footpath replacement works ongoing. Detailed planning has preceded works in order to ensure all businesses can remain operational during the construction period.
The street’s southern construction works are scheduled to be delivered during night works, operating between 6pm and 6am. Additional supporting tasks are being conducted during standard working hours.
The past week has seen Council’s contractors efficiently rectify pre-existing subsoil issues, with additional rain hindering the week’s overall progress.
