Due to wet weather impacts, Wyatts Lane, Parkes, needs to re-close to complete the road upgrade
- For one month from Wednesday 1 July 2020
- Off Bogan Road, Parkes
- A detour will be in place during the closure. Traffic will be diverted via Back Trundle Road, Henry Parkes Way, Newell Highway and Bogan Road, Goonumbla.
What we’re doing
- Build road formations
- Install permanent signage and fencing.
What to expect
- During the work there will be heavy vehicles travelling to and from the work sites.
- Traffic management with detour signage will be in place to assist those impacted by the road closure.
Once rail has been installed in each section, the rail will be ‘live’ and construction trains will be intermittently passing across the level crossing. For your continued safety, please ensure you obey all signage at level crossings.
