The Concept Design for the Lanes Road Drainage Upgrade is now ready for feedback. The design package includes concept drawings, hydraulic modelling, stormwater quality assessments, preliminary cost estimates and supporting technical reports.

Key activities completed to date include:

• Development of the Concept Design by Council's appointed consultant.
• Preparation of hydraulic modelling, stormwater quality assessments and supporting technical reports.
• Submission of the Concept Design package to Council for review.
• Detailed review of the design by Council officers to ensure it meets project objectives, applicable standards and long-term maintenance requirements.

What's happening next

Council is currently undertaking a detailed review of the Concept Design.

The next steps include:

• Refining the Concept Design where required.
• Completing any additional investigations identified through the review process.
• Confirming project construction scope, staging and other requirements.
• Progressing to Detailed Design once the Concept Design review has been completed and approved.

We will continue to keep the community informed as the project progresses and key milestones are achieved.
