    The roadway formerly known as Shaw Street within Tunstall Square is now closed and work has commenced on upgrading the streetscape in the new pedestrian plaza.

    Works have started on upgrading the storm water drainage within the plaza and Beverley Street.

    Drainage works are due to start in the central car park near Fella Hamilton and Dolce Mio next Wednesday 26 April. It is anticipated that six to eight car parking spaces will be unavailable for one week during this stage of construction.

    Demolition of the existing road pavement has commenced and will be followed by works to repave the footpaths along the shop frontages. Works in front of all shops will be undertaken outside of business hours to minimise disruption to trade and for pedestrians.

    The next stage of the works will include underground electrical works for public lighting and installing new high quality walkway paving.

  • Update: Works will get underway to create the new public plaza space at Tunstall Square in mid March.

    The works to create this public plaza space are part of a broader plan of streetscape improvements in the west of the Tunstall Square Shopping Centre.

    The public plaza will provide a place for the community to meet and socialise and aims to encourage more pedestrian movement throughout Tunstall Square.

    The plaza will feature paving, shade trees, public seating and landscape elements, and will provide opportunity for community events and socialising space for centre visitors and staff – see the artist's impression in the photo gallery.

    Works are scheduled to start on Wednesday 15 March and it is expected that works will be completed by mid 2017.

    The design for the public plaza has been informed by consultation with the local community and traders in September 2016.
