BITUMISING WORKS ON BENNETT STREET TUESDAY 4TH DECEMBER 2018 (SUBJECT TO WEATHER)
Bitumising works will be carried out along Bennett Street in Dumbleyung on the 4th December between McIntyre Street and Absolon Street. Sections of the road will be closed for short periods of time while the works are carried out.
Please remember to refrain from street parking on Bennett Street from Monday night 3rd December until works have been completed on Tuesday the 4th December 2018.
We realise this is an inconvenience however for us to complete the task efficiently and safely
we ask that you please assist us with the below:
•               No street parking on Bennett Street
•               Do not walk through closed work areas as works require the bitumen to be at high temperatures.
•               Be mindful of heavy machinery operating in the area.
•               Please access shops via the laneways and the General Store via their carpark accessed from Absolon Street.
If you have any questions, please contact the Shire of Dumbleyung on 9863 4012.
We thank you for your cooperation.

SEE Something? WANT Something? SAY Something..
We rely on residents of the shire reporting faults to us, as we don’t have the resources to ensure that every road, building, park and garden in the shire is free from defects. If you see something, please report it keeping in mind the following:
1. Reports are to be made via the shire website,www.dumbleyung.wa.gov.au. If you don’t have access to a computer, or prefer not to, you can make a report via the front counter of the shire, either in-person, by telephone, or emailao@dumbleyung.wa.gov.au. 
2. Reports are not to be made to the Manager of Works, staff not working the front counter or any staff member in their private time. We are trying to ensure every works request receives the appropriate response, but if you choose to go outside the process, we may not provide a response.
3. Works requests simply need to report what and where the fault is. If you have further helpful information please include it, but we do not require a story behind the fault. From the report, we can determine the correct treatment and if we require further information, we will get back in touch.
Following your report, we will respond to acknowledge receipt of the report as soon as it is received, and then let you know what action we plan to take within ten days. If applicable, we will then let you know when the work has been carried out.
