Works start on museum upgrade
Council contractors have started work on the Museum of the Riverina capital works redevelopment project at the Botanic Gardens site with the first stage expected to be finished towards the end of this year.
The project will incorporate major improvements to the museum’s exhibition spaces and collection storage areas.
Council’s Project Manager Tom Lemerle said site mobilisation for the project was completed in February after a comprehensive tender period along with design revision and preparation for construction of the new exhibition building currently being finalised.
“Council also received funding from the Federal Government and this funding has allowed us to progress stage two of the museum capital works redevelopment program, which is focused on exhibition design and fit out,” Mr Lemerle said.
