Snapshot

Date

Working hours

7am to 6pm, seven days a week

Location

Level crossing 917 on Croppa-Moree Road, south west of Croppa Creek

Town
  • Croppa Creek
Local Government Area
  • Moree Plains Shire

Work being done

Works will include installing new drainage structures and upgrades at level crossing 917.

To facilitate the works, a temporary gravel access road will be constructed to divert traffic, including road trains, around the existing level crossing.

To allow for drainage works on both sides of Croppa-Moree Road, a traffic lane switch will occur midway throughout the works to provide a safe work zone during construction.

What is a traffic switch?

Diverting traffic onto a different section of road is referred to as a traffic switch. Switching traffic helps minimise any traffic congestion caused by construction works.

Motorists are urged to follow changing traffic conditions on site, including speed zone reductions and directional traffic signage.

What can I expect

  • Trucks and other vehicles entering and exiting the construction site
  • Construction machinery and equipment operating on site adjacent to live traffic along Croppa-Moree Road
  • Delivery of materials and equipment to site
  • Some of these works will be noisy and mitigation measures will be in place
  • Some minor traffic delays are expected during work hours.

Machinery used

  • Trucks
  • cranes
  • graders
  • excavators
  • loaders
  • rollers
  • water/vacuum excavation trucks.

How we’re managing impacts

  • Traffic controls will be in place, where required, including Variable Message Signage (VMS) boards
  • Water carts will be on site to wet down areas to assist in managing dust.
