    We are continuing to make the most of the good weather to repair the extensive damage to our road network caused by the recent natural disaster.


    One of the many projects we are currently working on is Pinchin Road where the road’s embankment was damaged and a pipe needs to be replaced adjacent to 778 Pinchin Road.


    To allow access for the necessary equipment and to conduct the work, we will need to close the road on Wednesday, 6 July 2022 from 7am to 5pm.


    Signage will be in place to assist motorists with the detour via Keerrong Road.


    Part of the detour passes damaged drainage and pavement which has yet to be restored. Motorists are asked to follow the detour signage and proceed with caution. These damaged sections are scheduled for repair as part of the next stage of works.
