Week On Our Streets

Hamilton City Council is undertaking work on streets in various parts of the city over the next week to address safety issues and carry out routine maintenance.

All this work is weather-dependent and may be deferred in the event of rain.

Road users are encouraged to use alternative routes on the dates listed below if possible, to minimise traffic build-up and delays. However, where required, traffic management will be in place to ensure road users – including people on bikes and pedestrians – can navigate these areas safely while work is underway.

Thank you for your patience and understanding while these works are taking place – it is appreciated.

Upcoming Works/Delays

Resurfacing on Barton St
Barton St will be closed from Bryce St to London St from 7pm Monday 13 July to 6am Tuesday 14 July to allow for resurfacing work. Please follow the detours and traffic management in place.

Pedestrian and cycle access will still be maintained. Traffic management will be in place.

Construction of a new footpath and cycle-related safety improvements on River Rd, near the Clarkin Rd intersection, started on Wednesday 24 June.
