Upcoming works
What’s been happening
Clyde Road centre median removal
We’ve removed the kerb and center median along Clyde Road between Bemersyde and Kangan drives and placed temporary asphalt and line marking allowing us to create more space and keep lanes open while we work to widen the road behind barriers.
Bridge preparation works
Crews have also been undertaking earthworks, removing the topsoil, and creating a stable base in preparation for structural works to expand the bridge over the Princes Freeway.
Utilities relocation works
Utility relocation works continue across the project with the team recently working to relocate power services on Clyde Road outside McDonald’s and relocating water services at Sir Gustav Nossal Boulevard.
What’s coming up
Later this month we’ll continue the removal of the center median and kerb along Clyde Road between Kangan Drive and Enterprise Avenue.
We’ll remove the current lighting infrastructure and installing temporary signals, lighting, and signage to ensure traffic safety and smooth travel around our construction site.
Piling works on the bridge over the Princes Freeway are also set to kick off. These foundations will provide essential support for the widened bridge.
We’ll be in touch with nearby residents and businesses with more information about these works before they start.
What to expect during construction
We’ll work Monday to Friday, and sometimes on weekends as we continue to build the upgrade.
Sometimes we’ll also work at night to limit disruption to motorists. We’ll let impacted stakeholders know ahead of time.
There will be ongoing changes in traffic conditions including intermittent lane closures and reduced speed limits.
Please follow the direction of traffic controllers and on-road signage, and allow additional travel time.
Residents and businesses near our works area may notice an increase in noise, dust and vibration. We’ll do our best to schedule noisy works earlier in the day where possible.
If you feel impacted or have any questions or queries about these works or any works as part of the Clyde Road Upgrade, please call 1800 105 105 or email contact@bigbuild.vic.gov.au.
