On Tuesday 10 and Wednesday 11 December, the site cabins that have been used by our Harbour Public Realm improvement project contractor Montel Civil Engineering will be removed. The removal requires the cabins to be lifted by a crane lorry and is expected to cause some disruption to the Vaughan Road area during the working day. A traffic management contractor will be available to manage traffic and pedestrians over the two days. However, during some periods of the lifting process, access will not be allowed to Vaughan Road. We apologise for any inconvenience this may cause. Once the cabins have been removed from the site, the area will be fully cleaned and reopened to pedestrians by Friday 13 December.
