A large crane will be removed from a Willis Street construction site meaning some detours will be in place to cars and
public transport over the weekend.

Plan is in place and drivers are asked to follow directions.
Pedestrian access is still available, except for near Stewart Dawson corner, and cyclists are asked to dismount if going
through the area or use the detours in place.
Metlink has been notified and buses will be detoured, with information online and on the real time update boards.
VMS boards have been installed and letter drops have gone to all businesses/residents in this area.

permitting.
