Pearson Street signalling removal works
Between June to September 2023, contractors will undertake works to remove signalling infrastructure in the vicinity of Pearson Street.
Work being done
These works have been assessed through a Review of Environmental Factors under the Environmental Planning and Assessment Act 1979.
We want to reassure residents that starting these works now does not mean approval has been given for major construction to begin on the Albury to Illabo section.
They will however enable major construction to start more efficiently once approvals are issued.

- Compacting holes from the pole locations and backfilling, if required, to restore ground condition.

When are works occurring?
