Whittlesea council is taking advantage of the upcoming school holiday break to carry out safety upgrades outside St Peter’s Primary School in Epping.
The works on Coulstock Street, between Howard Street and Davisson Street, will start on Wednesday, April 12 and are anticipated to continue until Monday, April 24.
The project will construct a concrete shared path along the south side of Coulstock Street and upgrade the existing children’s crossing to a raised crossing.
To complement these safety improvements, the project works will also install associated drainage and signage, as well as line-marking.
There will be no changes to private vehicle crossings.
These important works will cause some temporary disruption to traffic, but private property access and waste collection services will be maintained during the project’s duration.
The project forms part of a larger plan to improve traffic management in the vicinity of St Peter’s Primary School.
For more information, contact customer service on 9217 2170 and ask for Project Engineer Surendra Paudel.
