The Conville Swimming Pool will be closed to the public on 10 – 11 January 2025, due to a swim gala that will be hosted by Eden Aquatics.
We do apologise for any inconvenience.
We are pleased to inform the public that the staff on-site has successfully moved the truck to a designated parking area. Cleanup activities are still ongoing, but the road is now open in both directions.
Please be aware that there may be minor disruptions as the truck recovery process continues.
We appreciate your patience and understanding.
Please be advised that there has been a truck accident on the road towards Victoria Bay, near the train bridge. Currently, only a single lane is open, with a stop-and-go traffic management system in place. Fire and Public Authority (PA) Traffic Services are on scene and working to clear the road.
The cleanup will take some time, as the truck’s load will need to be removed by forklift. Traffic Services will remain on-site for the duration of the operation.
We urge the public to be patient and follow all traffic control instructions.
