Landscaping work at Bathursts city entrances has come to an unplanned pause, but mayor Gary Rush says it will still be completed by proclamation day.

The work to revamp the citys entrances on the Mitchell and Mid Western highways has been designed to incorporate the citys history and heritage.

Motorists have been watching the project progress over the past few months, but it has now paused while contractors seek bluestone.

We thought we could buy it in tile form, Cr Rush said.

He said contractors are now searching for alternatives to the planned bluestone tiles.

There are design issues that sometimes present themselves in any construction, small or large, that need to be revised, he said.

Once found, the bluestone will be added to the brick wall already in place at both sites.
