What |
Before resurfacing, we carry out 'pre-seal' repairs on streets to fix small issues and improve drainage. We often complete these repairs up to a year before the resurfacing to ensure the road is safe and provides good value for the community in the meantime. |
|---|---|
Why |
We aim to maintain all our roads so that they are safe, better to drive on and last longer. Maintenance reduces the likelihood of potholes and improves overall road condition. |
Where |
Lewis Street, between Hoon Hay Road and Wyn Street, Hoon Hay. |
When |
The work is expected to start on 14 September 2026 and finish on 25 September 2026. Monday to Friday, 7am to 6pm (weather/site condition dependent). |

Details
Our contractor will be repairing cracks, potholes and other road damage. Once the repairs have had time to settle, we'll come back to apply the final surfacing layer over the whole area. It may be up to 12 months before you see us back to finish the job, and we'll be in touch again before we do.
