Nicholas St update: Redevelopment workforce reaches new heights

There are currently 210 people working to deliver the new Ipswich City Council administration building, new Ipswich Library and civic plaza.

In the past week, the external framework used by crews to access the emerging levels of the new administration building has reached level six.

Concreting is due to be poured to form the level three floor.

Work has started on the installation of the steel structure in the deck bar located in the former Woolworths loading dock.

The next lot of concrete was poured in the area where the zero depth water play area jets are located.

Also this week, some short-term changes took place in the car park. From Monday, 27 April, level six has been closed for about three weeks. Additionally, the exits on level five are temporarily reduced to one.
