Burnie Arts Civic Plaza Project Update

Published on 29 January 2026

The redeveloped Civic Plaza and landscaped areas will provide places for entertainment and relaxation. Through initiatives in the Urban Plan, it will also have better connections to the waterfront and shopping areas.

The planned completion is 30 June 2026.

January 2026

Construction is progressing with pathways and building access from carparks, stage, landscape zones and paving areas taking shape.

October 2025

The constructing team Vos Group have been excelling through the Civic Plaza redevelopment. Vos will be moving the sheds that have been living on site, over to Little Alexander Street. This will not impact access in Little Alexander Street, but care should be taken in the area.

Starting Monday 20 October, Vos Group will be fencing off part of the Museum car park for the carpark civil works.

Access paths to the museum and museum toilets are shown in green.

Museum toilets will generally remain open. However, the toilets will need to be closed for a short period to enable replacement of the footpath. This will be communicated prior to closure.

We thank you for your patience during these works as we continue to work towards making a better Burnie.
