Please see below important information from the City of Greater Geelong about Aphrasia Street road closure for part of 2023, between Talbot Street and Pakington Street.

Dear Resident,

RE: Aphrasia St, Newtown – Road Reconstruction and Drainage Works

The City of Greater Geelong’s Construction Unit will be starting work the week beginning Monday 09 January 2023 to reconstruct Aphrasia Street, Newtown between Talbot Street and Pakington Street. These works include the installation of new underground drainage, kerb and channel, footpaths and road surfacing.

Works are expected to be completed by the end of May 2023, weather and Covid conditions permitting.

Road Closure – Whole Project

To allow works to be completed safely and efficiently a full road closure is required between Pakington Street and Talbot Street (Please see works area on map below).

Property Access

Whilst works are being completed there will be no vehicle or pedestrian access to the front of properties on Aphrasia Street between Pakington and Talbot Streets. When safe to do so, pedestrian access will be reinstated whilst the road construction phase is still taking place.

Further information will be provided regarding these works closer to the start date.

We apologise for any inconvenience and will endeavour to minimise disruptions as much as possible.
