Lighting Upgrade

Council is preparing to upgrade the open space lighting at Strand Park with environmentally sustainable, energy-efficient fixtures. This initiative will enhance community safety while reducing the park’s environmental footprint.

This upgrade is part of Council’s annual electrical maintenance program, which aims to maintain Council controlled lighting assets to ensure the community’s connectivity and safety needs are met while continuing to support the growth of our region.

As part of this project, Council will:

• removal of old lighting and reinstatement of lighting poles
• install new energy efficient lighting.

If you live near, visit or are travelling through the area, you may experience:

• construction machinery and vehicle movement
• increased levels of dust, noise, and vibrations
• temporary parking changes, minor traffic delays and reduced speed limits.

To ensure the upgrade work is carried out safely and efficiently, Council advises that Strand Park will be closed for the duration of the works.

Project funded by Townsville City Council,
