Asphalting works to continue

In a recent Yarra Ranges Council meeting on Tuesday 9 August, Lisa Walsh of Seville said she would like to confirm that the roadworks (Asphalting, curb and channelling, drainage etc) is still going to be completed for the entire length of Britton Rd as per the proposal and paperwork that we were sent.

“I was given the impression by workers on-site this week that you are no longer doing the entire road. I am hoping that the information I have been given is incorrect. I have spoken with fellow neighbours, who are also under the impression that the entire road will be completed as planned,” she said.

Hjalmar Philipp, Director Built Environment and Infrastructure said that the council can confirm that Britton Road, Seville will be sealed (asphalted) along its full length, between Link Road to the west and its dead-end to the east.

“The design and scope are consistent with the plans used during the community consultation process,” he said.

The finished road will be an asphalt road, 5 metres in width, with concrete edge strips along both sides of the road and the existing table drain along the southern side of the road will be re-shaped to collect road surface water run-off.
