Construction Activities: June 2026

Welcome to the June 2026 Construction Update of the Northshore Hamilton Street Renewal Program (SRP). BMD is constructing the SRP and will prepare the western end of the precinct (adjacent to Portside Wharf) for six new development lots planned for mixed-use residential development in accordance with the Northshore Hamilton PDA Development Scheme.

BMD is continuing the delivery of the Northshore Street Renewal Program with works progressing across multiple stages throughout June.

Map of Stage 1 and Stage 2 Work Zones

Essential works to prepare the area for upgraded infrastructure and improved public spaces continue in the Stage 1 and Stage 2 work zones, as shown on the map below.

Wharf demolition is ongoing in the Stage 1 work zone, with crane operations, excavator works and diving operations also underway to remove the old marine piles. Stormwater pipes continue to be installed throughout this work zone.

Wharf Street Temporary Park closure 8-16 June

Further improvement works will be undertaken at the Wharf Street Temporary Park to enhance community access and connectivity throughout the park.

Works will occur from Monday, 8 June to Tuesday, 16 June 2026, weather permitting

During the works, the off-leash dog area will be closed. The children’s playground will be closed intermittently for safety due to concrete trucks and other construction activities.

The playground will remain open when it is safe to do so.

During the works, park users may choose to visit Hercules Street Park, which is approximately 300m from the Wharf Street Temporary Park. Directions from the Wharf Street Temporary Park to the Hercules Street Park are highlighted in the map below.

Other construction activities across the precinct

Other intermittent construction activities will be undertaken near the Stage 1 and Stage 2 work zones. Detours and changed traffic conditions will be required to safely carry out these works. Please follow the directions on signage and from traffic controllers.

Work impacts

Throughout construction, we will provide notifications of upcoming work. Measures will be in place to monitor our activities and adjust our controls as needed to minimise impact on the community.

• Noise, dust and vibration: These works will generate noise, dust and vibration.
• Increased activity: Expect more workers and construction vehicle movements around the precinct. Equipment may include excavators, vac trucks, profilers, haulage vehicles, hand tools, concrete saws, generators, concrete trucks and pumps, water trucks and misting cannons.
• Other construction activities to support the delivery of the SRP will be undertaken throughout the Northshore Hamilton precinct outside of the Stage 1 and 2 Work Zones, including moving materials and equipment between work zones, surveying and installing underground services and environmental monitoring.
• Utilities: Some activities may temporarily impact utility services. Written notice will be provided at least seven (7) days in advance when disruptions are expected.
• Hazardous materials: Any hazardous material removal, including asbestos, will be managed safely by qualified personnel.
• Tree and vegetation removal: Some removal may be required within or near work zones to support safe construction of the SRP.

• 6.30am to 6.00pm Monday to Thursday
