Toowoomba Regional Council (TRC) will be closing the Toowoomba City Library car park from 7am on Monday 13 February to 7am on Monday 27 February.
TRC Environment and Community Portfolio Leader Cr Tim McMahon said the closure was necessary as Council crews undertake an important safety upgrade on sections of the footpath on the eastern side of Victoria Street, between Herries and Little Street.
“As part of the Victoria Street footpath project, the library driveway will be reconstructed, making it safer for all users,” Cr McMahon said.
“The reconstruction work means the car park will need to be closed for two weeks.
“We encourage those who utilise the library car park to find alternative parking. Options include on-street parking on Herries and Ruthven Street and off-street parking in Council’s Water Street car park.
“When utilising alternative parking, please adhere to appropriate parking signage to avoid fines. Time limits and fees will still apply.
“There will also be two temporary parking bays for persons with a disability behind the Herries Street admin building on the northern side of the carpark.
“Even though the car park will be closed, please be assured the library remains open for its normal operating hours.
“We apologise for any inconvenience this temporary car park closure has on the community.”
