October 2024 update - Merrylands CBD works
The Merrylands CBD Drainage and Infrastructure Upgrade is progressing with Addlestone Road now open to southbound traffic from Merrylands Road, improving the traffic flow and easing congestion around the project.
Construction fencing along the footpath on Addlestone Road (east side) has now been removed, providing better pedestrian access to and from the shops.
Utility works on the west side at the intersection of Addlestone Road and Merrylands Road are experiencing significant delays due to a current industrial action against Endeavour Energy by the Electrical Trades Union.
Unfortunately, this means that Council cannot progress to the next stage of the project until Endeavour Energy complete the required works to this area.
In the meantime, Council is looking at further options to improve traffic and pedestrian access for Addlestone Road.
We apologise for the inconvenience this may cause and appreciate your cooperation and understanding as we deliver this important work.
The safety and wellbeing of our community will remain our highest priority and we will keep the community updated and informed as work progresses.
The Merrylands Infrastructure Upgrades consist of a series of storm water drainage infrastructure replacements, construction of new roads and other utility upgrades across Merrylands CBD.
