Here is an outline of Orange City Council’s planned roadworks in the week ahead.
The final stages of construction of the roundabout at the intersection of Dalton and Clinton streets will get underway this week.
With the footpath, traffic islands and centre garden completed, contractors started laying the final layers of hot mix asphalt on the road today.
ROUNDABOUT: Hot mix asphalt is being added to the new roundabout at the corner of Clinton and Dalton Street this week.
Weather permitting, contractors are expected to be in Orange later this week to carry out line marking on the new roundabout at Dalton and Clinton streets as well as Coronation Drive, Woodward Street and the recently-re-surfaced roundabout at Dalton and Peisley streets.
Council crews are making progress on the project to install stormwater drainage lines to support the planned upgrade of the intersection of Dalton and Sale streets.
The Council has plans to smooth out the dip in the road at the intersection.
Contractors are making progress on the upgrade of Clergate Road. This week crews will be working on the base gravel layers of the road. Crews will also begin installing concrete kerbs and gutters.
Council crews are also working on grading unsealed rural roads in the district this week. Grading work will occur in Dane Lane and other roads in the area around Huntley Road.
