CRANBOURNE’S own miniature road network, Casey Safety Village (CSV), will be closed until July 2016 for upgrade works.
The safety village will be remodelled as part of road works taking place to the village surrounds.
City of Casey mayor Sam Aziz said the site would have been disrupted as a result of the road works.
“The CSV has always been a well-utilised facility delivering road and fire safety educational programs to kindergarten and primary school children,” Cr Aziz said.
“And council is pleased to be improving and enhancing it to maintain a high standard facility.”
The council has advised there will be no programs at the facility in term one and term two of 2016 or during the January and April school holidays.
Bookings are set to recommence once the works are complete for term three.
To make a booking from July call 9705 5200 or email safetyvillage@casey.vic.gov.au to reserve preferred dates.
