Booleroo Centre Concrete Footpaths and Improved Disability Access

Booleroo Centre Concrete Footpaths and Improved Disability Access

Council as part of its 2021/22 budget approved funding to replace concrete and sealed footpaths in Booleroo Centre. This work has been out to Tender and works are scheduled to start around the last week in May.

The new footpaths will replace sections that are currently old and failing and will incorporate sections of Stephens Street, Arthur Street and a section of Saunders Street. This work will also include the replacement of property driveways.

Some sections of the footpaths will be 2.0 meters in width with other areas being full width (kerb to property boundary).

As part of these works and in accordance with the Councils Disability Action Plan, several intersections will have disability access crossings placed in accordance with Australian Standards.

Whilst these works will create minor interruptions to access to footpaths, driveways and properties the outcomes for access especially for the School, Hospital and Aged Care facility will be especially welcomed.

Some minor repairs to kerbing, tree trimming etc. will also be undertaken whilst working in the area.

Plans of the areas under construction can be found below:
