Council has completed works on Laurence Grove in Ringwood East.

The Federal Government has committed funding through the Local Roads and Community Infrastructure Program for infrastructure renewal works in Laurence Grove, Ringwood East.

Council committed funding for accessibility and pedestrian safety works.

Infrastructure renewal

Laurence Grove was identified as requiring infrastructure renewal works due to the deteriorated condition of the existing kerb, channel and road pavement.

Key elements of the renewal works included:

  • reconstruction of the existing concrete kerb and channel on both sides of the road
  • reconstruction of all vehicle crossovers
  • installation of additional drainage infrastructure
  • application of new asphalt surface.

Accessibility improvement works

Council also provided accessibility improvements, including;

  • construction of a new footpath on the east side of the road, linking Knaith Road to Railway Avenue
  • construction of three indented disabled parking spaces adjacent to Knaith Road Reserve
  • construction of an accessible ramp to the Senior Citizens Centre in Knaith Road Reserve.
  • conversion of the existing pedestrian crossing on Laurence Grove, at the intersection with Railway Avenue, into a raised pedestrian crossing.
