Start Date/Time: January 27th, 2026

Reason: The City of Greater Geelong is upgrading the drainage culvert to provide increased flood protection for upstream properties.

  • Reason: The City of Greater Geelong is upgrading the drainage culvert to provide increased flood protection for upstream properties.

Detours & Impact

  • Vehicle Detours: Traffic will be redirected via

    De Burgh Road, Princess Street, and Eversley Street.
