Bonville Road boundary work
Wed 9th Oct 2024 at 09:08Work to finalise the post and rail boundary fencing along Bonville Road, which began earlier this year, is set to recommence next week and is expected to last approximately two days. The remaining sections of old post and wire fencing will be removed and replaced with post and rail. Some minor scrub clearance will also take place to integrate the new fencing with existing natural barriers, creating a secure boundary. The work is being done outside of seasonal ecological constraints.
