Above is a short video of the War Memorial project just as works were starting to move the roadway from its orginal course for the duration of the project, which at the end will see it being a tunnel under the garden memorial site above. Whole project has to be completed for ANZAC Day 2015 to commerate 100 years since Gallopilli landings.

The idea behind this part of the blog is to give a perspective on the time taken for construction. We have picked some sites around town and will keep a note of progress through photographic evidence to illustrate the time taken for construction. Any recommendations gratefuly accepted.
