The round-a-bout at the Tanderra Lawn Cemetery in Chinchilla is set to be upgraded into an ashes interment garden, to provide a sustainable option for disposal in line with Council's Corporate plan.
Demolition works will commence onsite next Tuesday 18 March 2025, with an expected completion by the end of April to mid-May (weather pending). During this time, vehicles will not be able to access the cemetery via the main entry point (visitors will be redirected via signage to another entry point).
The existing hedges that line the main entry (Platys Ladus Orientalist Cupressacese) are also being removed during this time. Post construction works, the hedges will be replaced with more appropriate trees to ensure that the space is open and can be easily maintained and accessed.
