Lanes being moved around as Majura Parkway nears completion

TERRITORY and Municipal Services are warning that traffic using Morshead Drive and Pialligo Avenue will be transitioned to the outer two lanes in both directions between the Monaro Highway roundabout and Woolshed Creek bridge overnight from 6.30 pm tomorrow until 5.30 am Thursday 27 August 2015, weather permitting.

“These traffic arrangements are part of the Majura Parkway project and will allow for the closure of the single inside lanes in each direction so a new median island and stormwater infrastructure can be constructed,” a spokesperson said.

“Works to widen this section of road by constructing new outside lanes have been underway since April in order to provide easy access to the Majura Parkway on-ramp, northbound, and Monaro Highway on-ramp, southbound.

“The works starting tomorrow are expected to take approximately nine weeks, weather permitting, and will be conducted outside peak traffic times to reduce the impact on motorists.

“The ACT Government apologises for any inconvenience these works may cause.

Jointly funded by the Australian and ACT Governments, the Majura Parkway is a $288 million investment in our regional transport network and is the single largest road infrastructure uk essays investment ever made in the ACT.
