Road closures

Boundary Road - road and drainage works
July 2023 to mid-2024 (weather permitting) 

To allow for road and drainage works in Boundary Road to continue and for works to commence in Denmans Camp Road in conjunction with the Boundary Road Extension project the following traffic arrangements will be put in place in July 2023 to mid-2024, weather and material supply permitting.  Please note that Variable Message Signs will be put in place indicating the July commencement date of these changes once the Contractor has confirmed this date:

• Denmans Camp Road - A one way/one lane traffic arrangement with traffic travelling in a northerly direction will be implemented.  The section of Denmans Camp Road from Colyton Street to Cupania Way will be maintained with a two-way traffic flow.
   
• Maree Street - A one way/one lane traffic arrangement with traffic travelling in a southerly direction will be implemented.  Maree Street north bound will be closed at Boundary Road; however, two-way resident only access on Maree Street will be maintained.
   
• Beth Street – a two-way traffic arrangement will be maintained in Beth Street, however residents will be unable to turn left into Denmans Camp Road.
   
• Colyton Street and Tavistock Street – the existing two-way detour arrangements will remain in Colyton Street and Tavistock Street.

UPDATE:

• Cupania Way and Denmans Camp Road Intersection - From mid-September, the intersection of Cupania Way and Denmans Camp Road will be closed to all traffic to enable the intersection to be reconstructed.  It is anticipated that this closure will be in place for a period of up to six (6) weeks whilst the works in this location are completed.  (temporary closure period 13 September to 26 October 2023)
   
• Ironbark Street and Denmans Camp Road Intersection – A closure of the intersection of Ironbark Street and Denmans Camp Road is planned to occur when the works progress to this area.  Indicatively, the closure is planned to commence in January 2024, however, further updates relating to this closure will be provided once the timing is more certain.
   
• Boundary Road between Denmans Camp Road and Maree Street - Whilst it was previously indicated that Boundary Road between Denmans Camp Road and Maree Street would re-open in November 2023, the closure of this section of Boundary Road is likely to be extended.  Further details in relation to the timing of the reopening of this section of Boundary Road will be provided once timing is more certain.

Please note that once the works in Boundary Road between Denmans Camp Road and Maree Street have been completed, Boundary Road will be re-opened to two-way traffic.

In addition to the above changed traffic conditions, to allow for the final asphalt resurfacing of Grevillea Street, Grevillea Street at the Boundary Road intersection will be fully closed for a period of approximately five (5) days during the June/July school holidays.
