Expected completion date: February 2025

 

The Pioneer Park development is approaching completion, providing an additional 700 burial allotments, improved drainage, and new parking facilities.

This project involves the excavation and processing of a sandstone shelf located approximately 500mm below the surface to create additional burial spaces. The sandstone substrate was finely crushed and reused as fill, ensuring sustainable use of materials.

With all concrete beams and pathways now installed, the final tasks include turf establishment and road repairs to Frost Avenue. The project is expected to be fully completed and released by February 2025.

During roadworks, access to Frost Avenue from Bunnerong Road will be restricted. Alternative access will be available via Gillooly Avenue, near Little Bay Road.

Final road maintenance and repairs are scheduled for January 2025.
