Details
- This intersection will be upgraded with new kerb and channel, median islands, and footpaths. There will also be some changes to the traffic light signals and relocation of services in the area.
- There will be some traffic lane closures to create workspace to conduct these works.
- If any additional night shift is planned for this intersection work, you will receive extra notification.
Impacts on traffic
- We will need to reduce traffic lanes to complete the work. This will create delays for road users at peak times. Please allow extra travel time if you need to use this intersection.
- Temporary traffic management will be in place in the areas where we are working.
- Temporary bus stops will be installed where existing stops may be affected. Signage will indicate where the bus stop has moved to. Please allow extra time.
- Cyclists will be merged with the traffic lanes. Please drive and ride with care. Cyclists can take a detour from the road works via the Little River Link cycleway.
- 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-down will only be carried out at night.
- On-street parking will be affected on both sides of Lincoln Road where we are working.
- We will keep work areas small where possible 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.
