The clock and flagpole have been successfully moved from the Roxburgh Entertainment Centre and will be put in storage until they are needed again.
The Central Otago District Council said in a statement yesterday that from Monday an engineer and contractor would begin removing the facade.
It should take until about the end of the week to complete.
Stop/go traffic control will be in place while the work takes place.
Salvaging anything, including bricks, will be one of the aims of clearing the site, for discussion about future use.
The work is taking place at a demolition site so the council advised to keep out for health and safety reasons. — APL
