In accordance with public notice requirements under the Local Government Act 1995 for road closures exceeding 4 weeks, please see the following:
Bennett Avenue, North Coogee – from Rollinson Road to Surada Street
Due to the undergrounding of high-voltage power lines, the existing northbound partial closure of Bennett Avenue from Rollinson Road to Surada Street in North Coogee is proposed to be extended until 5pm on 31 May 2024. Detours via Garston Way and Anchorage Drive will be implemented, with minimal delays expected. For further information, please contact Cable Layers Australia (CLA) at [email protected], or 08 9414 8113 (between 7.30am – 4.30pm Monday to Friday).
Partial northbound closure of Points Way, Cockburn Central
The City will be undertaking a temporary partial northbound closure of Points Way in Cockburn Central, from Signal Terrace to the Cockburn Central Station Car Park West 2. This closure will be in effect 24/7, starting from 7am on Monday 29 April 2024, until 7pm on Monday 10 November 2025. The purpose of this closure is to facilitate the construction of a new development at 28 Signal Terrace.
The new development at 28 Signal Terrace will include 109 residential dwellings, a 170 room hotel, and three ground floor retail units. To ensure safe manoeuvring space for trucks and mitigate risks to construction workers and the public, a partial closure will be implemented during construction.
Stratton Street and Hurford Street, Hamilton Hill
Due to previous flooding in the area, the City investigated the drainage and found that the current pipes do not have the capacity to convey heavy stormwater to the sump on Hurford Street. To fix this, a new drainage system has been designed for Stratton Street, Hurford Street, and Starling Street in Hamilton Hill. Construction is scheduled to start in April 2024, and should be completed towards the end of 2024. During this time, there may be some temporary disruptions to surrounding verges, footpaths, and crossovers. All property owners will be contacted in advance if access to their property will be affected.
The City is intending to request the Minister for Lands to permanently close a portion of unmade road at Seabrook Place, Success. It is proposed the unmade road portion will be amalgamated with the adjacent Reserve No.42979.
Enquiries regarding the proposal can be made by calling Property Services on 08 9411 3444 or emailing
[email protected] A plan of the proposal showing the details of the closure can be provided on request. If you wish to comment on the proposal please forward your written submission to the City of Cockburn, PO Box 1215, Bibra Lake DC 6965 no later than 5pm, Thursday 6 June 2024.
