Mercury Lane Closure for Futureproofing Works – Revised Timeframe and detour Dear neighbours, We are contacting you to provide an update on our initial Mercury Lane Closure Works Notification (distributed on 27 March). The works will now commence on 29 April, instead of the original date of 15 April 2024. We apologise for any inconvenience. The works will now be carried out across two stages: • Stage one (three weeks/four weeks) beginning 29 April: The southern corner of the Mercury Lane/Cross Street junction to the entry/exit point of Wilson Parking on Mercury Lane. • Stage two (four/five weeks) beginning after completion of stage one: Top of Mercury Lane to the northern corner of the Mercury Lane/Cross Street junction. During stage one, traffic controllers will be in place to manage vehicular access for residents and businesses at the bottom of Mercury Lane. Pedestrian access through Mercury Lane, to apartments and businesses will be maintained, with additional signage installed when required. Wilson Parking will remain open throughout the works and will be accessible via their respective entrances on Cross Street and Mercury Lane. The diversion routes for stage one can be seen in the diagram below, with the area of works in red. Please note that the right-hand turn from Upper Queen Street into Canada Street will not be viable so please adhere to the diversions in place during these works.
