Impact: The installation of the pits and pipes will be completed in stages with a section of pipe being laid and then backfilled before continuing along Bromfield Street, through the roundabout and along King Street.

These traffic controls will impact access to Bromfield Street, Cockman Street, Canterbury Road and King Street as follows:
