Project Update
August 2024

As part of our ongoing commitment to keeping you informed about the Scone CBD Revitalisation Project, we would like to share an update on the works happening in and around St Aubins Square and Kelly Street.

SAVE THE DATE – OCTOBER 12 2024

Get Ready to Party!

Council were recently thrilled to receive ‘Open Streets Program’ funding through the NSW Government.  Whilst still in the planning stages, the funding will allow us to celebrate the opening of Stage 1 of the CBD Revitilisation with a huge street party that will close down the CBD (from St Aubins to Kingdon Streets) from 12pm onwards. 

Think markets, local performers, live music, street dining and an open air concert to take us into the evening.  

This will be a time to not only celebrate the end of works, but thank our local community and businesses for their support during the revitalisation works.

Please lock October 12, 2024 into your calendar and plan for a full day of trading to maximise the event if you can.
