More work in Bowen Cres

Just received from our neighbours at 1 Bowen Cres

To all concerned,

We are organising a crane lift for Wednesday 8th December. We are expecting to start around 8am and finish around lunchtime, which will block Bowen Cres on our side of the road. Access to all properties shall remain in place, however, given that the materials will be moved over the pedestrian walkway, this will be blocked off.

There will be traffic management in place for the duration.

Please let us know if this will impact on any of your works on this day and also inform necessary parties.

Please contact me if you have any queries or concerns.

Thanks

New Anzac tram stop….soonish, sort of

The new Anzac Tram stop should be operational by about this time next year…woo hoo

There is quite a lot in this pack of slides from today’s meeting. Some things to note

  • The acoustic shed will be gone by mid-late January
  • All dongers/sheds on the St Kilda Rd site will be moved to Edmund Herring Oval in the first half of 2022
  • The tram lines will be relocated into their final position in late November 2022. This will be a very noisy period for us.
  • At that same time, the Park St tram stop will be demolished and the new Anzac tram stop will become fully operational. The road will still be only one lane in each direction.
  • Underground it is a bit like that new house you see built. It seems nearly finished but then all the services need to be added. The train platform will be completed by December 2022 but they then need to complete all the services.
  • Arden Station is a bit further ahead, this is a good video of that station https://youtu.be/KcaYvPNYud0

Detailed slides from today are here.

I’d like to extend a special invite to new people in the building
