Bass Coast Shire Council has appointed Super Paving (Vic) Pty Ltd under Annual Supply contract to renew the footpath along White Road between O’ Garey Street and Bond Street Wonthaggi. (Map Below)

Construction will begin early to mid-May 2023 and is anticipated to take 2 – 3 weeks to construct, subject to favourable weather, contractor and supplier availability.

The aim of this project is to improve access for pedestrians for the community. These works will give residents along the streets and the greater area, a safe pedestrian connection to existing footpath network.

These works are funded by Council’s Pathway Renewal Program 2022/23 in the order of $40,000.

  • Construction of a 2-metre-wide 125mm thick fibre reinforced concrete path from O’Garey Street and Bond Street including new pram crossing at Bond Street intersection. Some service adjustments for water, power and Telstra services and alterations for stormwater pit lids, where required.
  • Minor vegetation trimming to allow for the construction of the new footpath.
  • New footpath laybacks at intersections and connection of path, also some existing driveway adjustments as required.
  • Please note that access to abutting properties may be restricted for a four day period following from when the concrete is poured. This is required to allow the concrete to set properly before any vehicles can use the driveway. Our Contractor will advise these residents, in advance, of any works that may affect access to their properties.
  • Appropriate traffic and pedestrian control measures will be implemented onsite during these works. This will be a construction zone and we appreciate that for your own safety and others that access will be restricted. Our staff and contractor will notify nearby residents who may be impacted by these works.
  • The use of heavy plant and machinery including noisy and vibration works for construction including saw cutting, use of trucks for removal or delivery of materials.
