Diversions will be in place and will be clearly sign posted. The hours of work are 7.00am to 5.00pm Monday to Friday. When the site is unmanned the road closures will be lifted but speed restrictions will be still in place. Swan Street will be available for light vehicles only. There will also be project signs erected with contact details on the reverse side of the signs.Chorus is currently laying the fibre optic cable network (UFB) in Marton.
