Traffic and transport impacts
As construction works within and surrounding Arden Station continues, there will be some changes to how you drive, cycle and walk around the precinct.
Temporary
- Between February and June, there may be short term width reductions of the Moonee Ponds Creek Trail between the electrical substation and Arden Street to enable works on the decorative screen and landscaping. Traffic controllers will maintain two-way movements for users via a stop and go arrangement when working near the pedestrian and cyclist path.
Ongoing
- Construction vehicles and trucks will access the site via Laurens and Arden streets.
- All trucks carrying excavated materials will be covered, and water carts and street sweepers will be used frequently to minimise the spread of dust.
- Rumble grids have been installed to remove debris from the wheels of vehicles, this will help minimise the spread of dirt on local roads.
