Footpath Upgrade Works – Carstens Crescent, Wagaman

City of Darwin wishes to advise you about upcoming footpath upgrade works from 5 to 27 Carstens Crescent, Wagaman. This project is part of Council’s annual footpath program aimed at improving connectivity and enhancing accessibility for all users, including those with wheelchairs, trolleys, prams, and bicycles. 

Please refer to the map below indicating the work area. 

The works are expected to commence on Monday 13 April 2026 and will take approximately six weeks to complete, weather permitting. 

Before Construction:
Please notify City of Darwin of any irrigation systems, pipes, or cables in the footpath area or verge that could be affected by the construction. 

During Construction: 
In constructing the new path there is a possibility that access may be temporarily affected. Appropriate notice and communication will be given for any disruptions.

Traffic control devices will be in place for the duration of the project to ensure public safety while the works are being undertaken. Property and pedestrian access will be maintained where possible.

Our contractor will use machinery to perform the works, which may result in some noise disturbances. However, we have made every effort to schedule the works in a way that minimises disruption.

Post Construction: 
City of Darwin requests that irrigation systems on the verge be tested for damage once the construction is completed. Repairs to damaged systems caused by the construction will be undertaken, subject to notification received within 30 days from the completion date of the works.

We thank you in advance for your patience and consideration.
