Traffic will be able to travel in both directions along Union Street but there will be safety measures and a 30km speed restriction in place.
Advanced notice of road closure on Union Street on Sunday 3 November from 6pm to 6am Monday to enable trenching for pipe laying. Detours will be in place. There will be manual Stop/Go control on Monday morning to allow sealing.
