What to be aware of

• These works need to be undertaken at night to minimise impacts on the road network

• Traffic signals will not operate for one night at each intersection while signal upgrade works take place. Drivers should follow detour signs in place

• Lane closures will be required to safely perform the works. Drivers can expect some delays

• Variable message boards will be used to provide advance notice of works at each location

• A site compound to support these works will be established adjacent to 142 Dorcas Street. This site will occupy approximately 7 car parking spaces for the duration of these works

• There will be intermittent periods of medium – high level noise associated with the use of the road saw and NDD trucks

• Night works will comply with the Metro Tunnel Environmental Performance Requirements. The noisiest activities will be prioritised to occur as early as possible in the evening

• Signal programming which requires the isolation of signals during works will be carried out last.
