Overnight Lane Closures – Great Eastern Highway Bypass Interchanges Project

Overnight lane closures on Great Eastern Highway Bypass, 14-15 May 2023

Main Roads has advised the second half of the new concrete encased watermain across the Great Eastern Highway Bypass (the Bypass) has been completed. To ensure traffic flow along the Bypass is maintained during the second half of these works, the existing traffic barriers on the Bypass will be relocated. 

Work will be undertaken from 3pm Sunday, 14 May to 6am Monday, 15 May 2023.

Traffic impacts

During the above works

  • The westbound section of the Bypass, between Roe Highway and Abernethy Road, will be reduced to a single lane.
  • The eastbound section of the Bypass, between the Rail Bridge and Stirling Crescent, will be reduced to a single lane.
  • The speed limit in the construction zone will be reduced to 60km/h
  • Advance warning signage will advise road users of the changed traffic conditions. 

Upon completion of these works, a further short-term closure of the Bypass will be required to reinstate the road to its original layout. Main Roads will provide details of this closure in advance.
