WORK on Goondiwindis new $6m community centre is well underway.

The Civic Centre 1938.

G & K Lawson and Burke Industries Pty Ltd will undertake demolition works on site at 100 Marshall Street Goondiwindi over the next few weeks.

This work includes the demolition and removal of material from the old Council offices whilst maintaining the heritage-listed faade and the historical clock tower.

The public toilets will also be closed from Tuesday, October 72014 so alternative facilities at the tourist information centre - Mclean Street, Town Park Marshall Street, boat ramp Marshall Street and Apex Park Macintyre Street will need to be utilised.

It is not anticipated that pedestrians or traffic will be impacted; however warning and directional signage will be in place during the works. All signage should be adhered to, to ensure public safety. Normal construction industry hours of work will apply including some Saturday work.

Council is fully aware that this process will involve certain inconveniences. Unfortunately, these inconveniences simply cant be avoided as they are a part of change and renewal and Council asks that residents are patient with the process.

The long term benefits far out way the short term pain, Mayor Graeme Scheu explained today.
