🚧 Scarr Street Works Update 🚧

Works are progressing well through Stage 3 (north-east section), with stormwater, water main and irrigation works now over 70% complete. Businesses remain open and operating as normal.

Our next phase includes the installation of electrical conduits, with preparations underway for Stage 4, the busiest section of Scarr Street, following the reopening of the King Street intersection.

As concrete works commence, sections of temporary
fencing will be removed and updated traffic management arrangements will be implemented to maintain safe pedestrian and vehicle access.

Works Progression 🚧

Stage 1 – Most of the fencing has now been removed and the footpath has been reopened for pedestrian use, except for corner sections where a water main redesign is required and works are still pending.

Stage 2 – The majority of the stormwater works have been completed, except for the crossing in front of Australia Post at the end of Scarr Street. This section required redesign, and rework will be commencing shortly. Over the coming week, fencing will be adjusted to a shoulder closure setup while the stormwater crossing is finalised.

Stage 4 - Works are currently scheduled to commence at the beginning of July.

Traffic Management Updates:
Following the updated sewer design, rework activities will begin. This will require temporary closures around the Central Hotel and Australia Post to allow the works to be completed safely.

Water main, subsoil drainage, and irrigation works are ongoing at Lot A within Stage 2, progressing from Australia Post through to the Police Station.

Overall, the project is moving ahead well, and we appreciate your ongoing patience and cooperation.

Durack has exciting news regarding works progression. 🚧

Stage 1 has been handed over to Auzscott, a local subcontractor delivering the concrete works since last Friday. We are very excited to see footpath construction commencing as this stage moves into its final phase.

For Stage 2, stormwater installation is continuing, with excavations reaching depths of approximately 3.2 metres. Searles Plumbing is doing a great job completing these works within a very tight space.

ANZAC Day
Please note there will be no construction works this weekend due to ANZAC Day. Durack Civil is supporting Cloncurry Shire Council by providing traffic management and road closures from 5:00 am to 11:00 am to help ensure a safe and respectful day.
Thank you for your patience and cooperation.

With Stage 1 entering its final phase, Auzscott will be taking over for concrete works.

For Stage 2, fencing was installed yesterday for part of the area, and works are planned to commence shortly after Easter.

Following the same approach as Stage 1, works will begin with underground services, including stormwater, water main, comms, electrical and irrigation. This will then be followed by concrete works also undertaken by Auzscott.
