The street upgrade in Kings Cross was set to finish by the end of November -- rain permitting -- Council's KX Place Manger, Linda Mearing said at last night's PACT* meeting.
Asked why there had been an application to work till 9pm, and this did not appear to be happening, she said the application had been for one month only, and another application for late work was nearly approved.
Departing Police Commander Dave Darcy said he liked Darlinghurst Road as a one-way street and asked could it be continued, with angle parking then being a possibility. Doug Grand from the Licensing Accord said it had a negative impact on trade, and Elizabeth Bay residents said it made travel difficult in a southerly direction.
Ward Avenue is experiencing gridlock at some times of the day and crossing it has become more difficult, especially as it lacks the traffic calming devices of Darlinghurst Road, which are to be retained after submissions from the editor the the previous council.

My business is open 7 days and nights. I must have blinked the night the road contractors worked till 11 pm. The approval given on the previous DA prevented them from making any noise. The joke along Darlo Rd was the approval only permitted sweeping.
Going by past experience the approval will be granted on 29 November for the rest of the month. This council proves once again an almost unbroken record of incompetence.
