On 25 April 2025, a number of ANZAC Day dawn services and marches are scheduled to take place across the Central Coast.
These services provide community members with the opportunity to come together to pay their respects to our fallen service men and women and acknowledge those who fought to defend our country and protect our way of life.
To make sure these events are carried out safely, we will be closing some roads and providing traffic control. Please plan ahead and obey all detour signage and road closures to keep our community safe.
Lest we forget.
