Have your say on essential and future design works for the Lapstone Hill Tunnel

Survey closed.

Monday, 18 March 2024

Council is calling for community feedback on a series of essential upgrades and future design elements for the Lapstone Hill Tunnel.

Before the tunnel can be opened to the public, improvements to the tunnel’s drainage system need to be made, as well as the installation of lighting and electrical connections.

We are also calling on the community to consider:

• How the cultural and heritage significance of the tunnel might be reflected.
• Initial thoughts on a proposal for a bridge across Knapsack Gully near the western entrance of the tunnel.
• Future opening and closing times for the tunnel.

This survey closed on Monday, 8 April 2024.

Following community feedback, installation of the drainage and lighting solutions, plus further minor repairs and remediation, is anticipated to be completed by the end of 2024.
