Decision

The Committee carried the recommendation unanimously.

Background

Built Pty Ltd has requested a 25 metre long Works Zone in Gresham Street and a 45 metre long Works Zone in Loftus Street, Sydney.

To offset the loss of Bus Zone spaces in Gresham Street, it is proposed to reallocate 29 metres of the northern kerb of Spring Street as Bus Zone during the hours the Works Zone is operating.

The Works Zones are to facilitate construction works at 23-33 and 35-39 Bridge Street, Sydney, for a period of approximately 156 weeks.
