Out of hours works

As the project nears completion, some out of hours works will be required, as outlined below. Additional information about these works will be included in separate works notices.

  • Night works on Robinson Road East, Morrisby Street and Newman Road (north of Geebung Station) to complete centre islands, traffic signals and asphalt.
  • Out of hours works at the pedestrian bridge at times when there are no trains running.
  • Oversized truck deliveries to the pedestrian bridge between 5am and 6:30am (due to oversize load permit restrictions).
  • Line marking during night works on Robinson Road West, Newman Road and Railway Parade.
