The petrol stations on Marius street and Moonbi both closed their doors around midday, taping off the entry and exit points for several hours.

Caltex Media spokesperson Elizabeth Rex confirmed that the closures were due to a change of management, and would be back to business as usual by Thursday night.

“It is a temporary closure in relation to a change in management,” she said.

“The handover process should be complete and both sites reopened around 9pm Thursday night.”
