Willoughby city council has endorsed a road closure on Brand Street at Artarmon from 30 September to 25 November to conduct essential upgrades to the stormwater drainage system.

The upgrades come after the original works created insufficient capacity for the local community’s stormwater drainage connections and has been unable to cope with additional water to prevent flooding.

At this stage, it appears the road will be closed to westbound traffic only.

It is understood, the community has been informed via letterbox drops and direct engagement with key stakeholders, though locals have been advised to reach out to Member for Willoughby Tim James should they require further assistance on the matter.

Brand Street will likely reopen early if works are completed before 25 November.
