Construction Notice: Night works along MacArthur Avenue South

Please be advised that there are changes to the existing pedestrian footpath along MacArthur Avenue from Eat Street to the Northshore City Cat Terminal. This detour from MacArthur Avenue to the waterfront walkway has taken effect from Monday 9 August 2021. Reopening of the footpath will coincide with completion of the MacArthur Avenue roadworks.

As notified in the recent Construction Update, works will commence next month on $12.35m investment in road infrastructure at the eastern end of the Northshore precinct, representing the continued upgrade from industrial roads to a new generation of urban streets. Attached is the detail of works to be conducted by contractor BMD.

As advised in the April 2021 Construction Update, Frasers Property are working to conclude construction of the Riverlight North building with entry from Angora Road. On completion of building works, sewer construction works within Angora Road are required. Traffic diversions will be in place during the works from mid-July to early-August 2021. Please avoid use of this road where possible.

Following a State Government announcement in August 2020, works have commenced onsite to begin improved access to the Northshore riverfront, a core component of delivering a destination for innovation, enterprise and creativity. The Stage 1 Waterfront Development will include a collection of unique fit-for-purpose interim spaces that embrace the area’s port heritage. These spaces will include a facility for the creative arts, a containerised community for scale-up innovation and ecommerce enterprises with a central riverfront parkland.

Over the coming months visitors to Northshore will see earthwork activity, with some building upgrades and new build scheduled for later in 2021.

If you have any additional queries please use the Q&A function on this Have Your Say page and a project team member will be happy to respond.

Please note that from 1 February 2021, the Hercules Street Park playground will be under maintenance and require part closure for approximately three weeks. In an effort to leave some play options open, the improvements to the rubber soft fall zones will be completed in sections. Please note the areas under maintenance and supervise children to ensure safe play. We apologise for the inconvenience, and look forward to completing this enhancement to the popular Hercules Street playground.

Please see the latest construction update about upcoming footpath improvement works along sections of Hercules Street, Habour Road, Remora Road and MacArthur Avenue at Northshore.

Please be advised that the Hercules Street Park playground at the western end of Northshore will be temporarily closed for minor improvement works from the 24 August to 8 September 2020.

These dates are subject to change pending construction completion but all efforts will be made to complete works before popular use over the school holidays.

Some preliminary works for foundations of the playground improvements will begin this week. These works will largely be conducted in garden beds adjacent to the water play zone, and have minimal impact on use of the park and playground until 24 August. At certain times there will be closures of the small car park to the west of the playground to accommodate construction vehicles and equipment.

Alternative parking can be located at: 92 MacArthur Avenue

These works are being conducted in response to community feedback requesting additional shade, and observations of misuse of play equipment with some choosing to climb on top of the playground structure.

Once improvements have been made, visitors to the park will enjoy increased shade zones and safety ready for the summer months ahead.

With Hercules Street Park now complete, dog fun can now be found in the off leash area of Hercules Street Park.

The Wharf Close Pop-up space has always been intended to provide temporary activity that will appeal to a wide variety of interests and ages.

During COVID-19 restrictions we closed the park and will re-open with new activities and programs suited to the Pop-up space.

Be sure to keep an eye on our Facebook page for new installations in the space, as restrictions ease.
