Drainage upgrade works at Pinnacle Road, Sawmill Settlement, will commence on Monday 27 November as part of Council’s 2023-24 Drainage Upgrade Program.
Construction will include roadside drainage upgrades with the establishment of a new open drain and alteration of driveway crossovers where necessary. There will also be additional work undertaken to install a new drainage pit to protect the existing roadway from damage during heavy rainfall events.
Mayor Cr James Tehan said he is pleased to see this project taking place.
“Council has listened to feedback from members of the Sawmill Settlement community regarding this project, which will help to repair and prevent damage to the existing road and divert water away from residences,” he said.
“This will benefit road users and the local community and is part of our ongoing commitment to improving drainage infrastructure across the Shire.”
The $42,495.00 (ex GST) contract will be undertaken by Alpine Civil Pty Ltd. Works are expected to be completed by Friday 1 February.
Traffic management will be in place while works are undertaken and drivers are advised to follow any signage and travel safely when in the area.
