7am to 6pm, seven days a week

Location

I B Bore Road level crossing 923

Town
  • North Star
Local Government Area
  • Gwydir Shire

Work being done

To facilitate the works, a temporary gravel access road will be constructed to divert traffic around the construction zones to accommodate road trains.

To allow for construction activities on both sides of I B Bore 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 us minimise any traffic congestion caused by construction works.

Motorists are urged to follow changing traffic conditions on site, including speed zone reductions and directional 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
  • Delivery of materials and equipment
  • 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 and
  • water/vacuum excavation trucks

will be used within the construction impact zone.

How we’re managing impacts

  • Traffic control will be in place, where required
  • Water carts will be on site to wet down areas to assist in managing dust.
