Ballina Shire Council will temporarily close a section of Sinclair Street, Wardell from Monday 18 November 2024.
Sinclair Street will be closed to traffic from Bridge Drive to Richmond Street for approximately three weeks.
Detours via Fitzroy, Carlisle and Cedar Street will be in place during this time. Pedestrians will be detoured via Richmond Street onto Bridge Street. Access to properties will be maintained via the western end of Bridge Street. The Wardell Wharf will remain open during this period.
This closure is necessary for essential stormwater upgrade works, which are part of Council’s Wardell Community Green Space project.
Given these additional works, the Wardell Community Green Space is now expected to be open for the community to enjoy by the end of March 2025.
These stormwater upgrades have been funded through the Local Government Flood Grant Program.
For further information please contact Ballina Shire Council on 1300 864 444 or for road status updates visit
We appreciate your understanding and cooperation during this temporary closure.
