Construction work on the Kiama Village redevelopment on Terralong Street will not be completed before Christmas as originally scheduled.

A Woolworths spokesperson told The Bugle that customers can be assured that the supermarket, BWS and pharmacy will continue to operate as normal. The supermarket will be open from 7am to 9pm, seven days a week, except on Christmas Day when the store will be closed. 

“We understand this will cause an inconvenience for those visiting the Centre, especially by car throughout the Christmas and holiday period.”

To best manage this situation, Woolworths has implemented a one-hour parking limit to provide suitable parking access for all customers.

There will be no changes to the current shopping centre access arrangements, with the car park close to Meares Place remaining open. This can be accessed from the nearby roundabout.

It’s anticipated that the construction works will be completed in early 2024, and the group will be in a better position to share further updates in due course.

Meanwhile, Woolworths would like to thank the community for their continued patience and support while it edges closer to completing the redevelopment of the Kiama Village Shopping Centre.
