Welcome to our Lane Cove Weekly Review for 10 to 16 April 2017.
School Holidays are here again, which meant less parking woes, for those who still dare to brave the local parking stations!
Breaking News
After weeks of “waiting for a part from Germany”, on Thursday we witnessed a miracle – both the Market Square/Woolies escalators were working (and all three lifts too!). ‘Twas indeed an Easter Miracle!
Also during the week, these officials were spotted inspecting the Woolies car park – looking at the boomgate, speed-bumps and cleanliness. Since then, some of the speed-bumps have been removed, and the stairwells and nooks and crannies of the car park have been cleaned.
Moving in
Thanks to a Roving Reporter for sending in this photo of the first residents moving into the recent completed apartments at the corner of Little Street and Pottery Lane. Also a good view of the new foot bridge across Little Street, to the Aquatic Centre.
