Traffic in Wagga's CBD will experience a significant disruption as a key section of Wagga's main street closes to traffic tonight.
While council originally advised the public that Baylis Street between the Sturt Highway (Edward Street) and Morgan Street would be temporarily closed on Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday nights this week, the closure will now only take place on Monday.

In other news:
The closure will commence at 6:30pm and is being undertaken while council removes a service pole along the street.
It's understood the pole extends quite deep into the ground, requiring an extensive process for its removal.
While this is being undertaken, Council will ensure that traffic controls and detours are in place while the works are carried out.
Council has also reassured members of the public the busy thoroughfare will reopen to traffic no later than 7am Tuesday morning.
A further two service poles will be removed at a later date.
