Crown Street Upgrade

Weekly Project Updates

  • Construction update - Week commencing 01 July 2024

    Construction works continue at Crown Street between Albion Street to Campbell Street (west), between Foveaux Street to Fitzroy Street (west) and between Foveaux Street to Collins Street (alongside Shannon Reserve).

    Our construction work for the week commencing 01 July 2024 weather permitting includes:

    • From Albion Street to Campbell Street (outside 285A Crown Street) – continue paving works.
    • From Foveaux Street to Fitzroy Street - continue electrical work and kerb and gutter work.
    • Foveaux Street to Collins Street (alongside Shannon Reserve) - kerb and gutter work.

    Temporary access changes for Shannon Reserve (park and playground)

    During our works please access Shannon Reserve via Collins Street, Richards Lane or Foveaux Street. We will have access points on Crown Steet closed to ensure community and worker safety. See the map below.

    Temporary relocation of southbound bus stop

    During our works we will temporarily relocate the southbound bus stop further south of Collins Street. Please follow signage in the area for more details. See the map below.

    We will work to minimise impacts during this time, however there will be some machinery noise, temporary restrictions to parking and temporary changes to pedestrian access.

    Traffic control will be available on site for the duration of works to assist pedestrians, cyclists, businesses and car users. Customers will be able to access businesses during our works. Please follow the directions of traffic controllers at all times.

    Your patience and cooperation during this period are much appreciated.

    Please get in touch with the Community Liaison team with any questions or concerns.

    Thank you,

    Crown Street Upgrade project team
