Shoalhaven City Council would like to reassure the community that clean-up works are a priority following the impact of yesterday’s east coast low across the Shoalhaven region.
Council staff will focus on clearing trees and debris on roads over the next couple of days so that they can be opened as soon as possible.
Shoalhaven City Council Mayor Amanda Findley said the impact of the east coast low storm has been significant and predicted a long clean-up ahead for those who have been impacted.
“The storm has impacted many towns right across the Shoalhaven. I wish to thank the community for their patience and understanding as Council staff start the massive task of assessing damage and triaging information received from the emergency services and the public”, Clr Findley said.
“We appreciate that this can be a frustrating time for the community. Council staff are working as quickly as possible to reinstate access for individuals to their homes and properties and are busy clearing fallen trees”, Clr Findley said.
“In particular I would like to recognise the tireless work of Council and SES staff, many who worked late into the night in pretty awful conditions”, Clr Findley said.
Council wishes to remind motorists to adhere to closed road signage to allow Council staff to complete urgent clean-up work across the Shoalhaven.
