Business owners optimistic as another section of London Circuit closes

The eastern side of London Circuit closed last night until late 2026 to allow for light rail construction and footpath improvements, but the businesses affected are feeling positive about the construction "because we'll have a far more modernised area to work from".

Getting into and around Canberra’s city centre became a little more challenging at 8pm last night, when part of London Circuit East closed to general traffic until late 2026.

It’s to facilitate utility work related to construction of light rail stage 2A, a 1.7 kilometre stretch from Civic to Commonwealth Park.

It follows the closure of the western side of London Circuit, between Northbourne and Edinburgh avenues, a month ago.
