Impacts on traffic 

We’re working during the night to minimise the impact to all road users when the road is busy during the day, and when most businesses are closed to avoid disruption.

  • There will be a lane closure on Lincoln Road just past the Hazeldean Road railway line. It will be one-way city bound between Hazeldean Road and Moorhouse Avenue overnight between 8pm and 6am.
  • Some of our work will be concentrated around the left turn bay from Lincoln Road into Moorhouse Avenue.  Traffic can still turn left, however heavy truck left-turn movements will be restricted. Traffic management will be reduced on Lincoln Road and Moorhouse Avenue during the day to allow normal traffic flow through the worksite.
  • Cyclists will be merged with the traffic lane on Lincoln Road. Please drive and ride with care.  
  • Speed will be reduced to 30km/h through the work area. 
  • Pedestrian access to footpaths will be maintained at all times with detours in place from time to time. Please follow signage.

Impacts of work 

  • There will be increased noise, dust, and vibration from the use of machinery for activities such as saw cutting, hydro excavation, and plate compaction. 
  • If the work requires a water shut-down a further notice will be provided with dates and times. Please note that all planned shut-downs will only be carried out at night. 
  • On-street parking will be affected where we are working.  
  • We will keep work areas small where possible to reduce disruption and road cones will indicate where parking will not be available.  
  • Property access will be maintained where possible. We will work with businesses and residents during the work. Please let us know if you have any specific property access needs e.g. medical visits, home help, large vehicle deliveries or planned works.
