Kingborough Council Mayor, Paula Wriedt provided an update to the community on the Summerleas Road Underpass.
“Unfortunately, there have been some delays on the Summerleas Underpass project with some changes to non-council infrastructure planned for have taken longer than anticipated and are outside our control.
“These delays will have a knock-on effect to the project.
“There were some early weather issues that also contributed to the time delay.
“At this stage, the road closure will likely be extended, though we are working with the contractor to understand the full effect of the timeline and possible ways to accelerate the project.
“Council apologises for these delays and will provide weekly updates on the progress of the project ensuring that the community has a better understanding of the timeline.”
