lennox VILLAGE vision PROJECT DELIVERY stage 2

The vibrant village of Lennox Head remains open during the upgrade. Parking is available in Park Lane, Ballina Street, and at the Lennox Head Cultural Centre with easy pedestrian access to retailers and eateries. Look out for the tear drop banners in Park Lane indicating pedestrian access points to Ballina Street. So that road reconstruction can be completed as quickly as possible, Ballina Street, between Rayner Lane and Park Lane, is temporarily reduced to one-way traffic heading south. The one-way traffic arrangements will move north along Ballina Street as the upgrade works progress. The one-way arrangement is essential to provide council’s crews with sufficient width to reconstruct the road while maintaining traffic flow and access to businesses.
