Beaconsfield Parade bridge works and track possession, Glenrowan: 9-11 March 2024
Inland Rail will begin demolition of the old Beaconsfield Parade bridge in Glenrowan during a track possession between 6am Saturday, 9 March and 6pm Monday, 11 March.
Work being done
Cranes will be used to remove the old Beaconsfield Parade bridge, which will then be demolished and moved offsite.
Installation of track drainage will also occur.
Trains will not be running during the round-the-clock works. For changes to passenger services, visit vline.com.au.
What can I expect
- Traffic access via the new Beaconsfield Parade bridge during the works
- Heavy machinery and equipment operating onsite
- Delivery of materials and equipment
- Trucks and other vehicles entering and exiting the construction site may cause minor traffic delays
- No access to Siege Street from Beaconsfield Parade
- Limited access to the northern-end of Woolshed Road other than to local businesses and residents.
- Temporary streetlighting in place to assist pedestrians crossing the new bridge
- Use of generators and light towers during night works.
Traffic changes
- Vehicles will use the new Beaconsfield Parade bridge.
- Siege Street will become a ‘no through road’.
- Pedestrians will use the new bridge shared user path and temporary pedestrian pathway along Siege Street. Works are continuing to complete the connecting footpaths and provide improved access to Glenrowan’s key heritage sites.
Machinery used
Trucks, cranes, excavators, concrete trucks and pumps, loaders, and light vehicles will be used within the works area.
How we’re managing impacts
- Water carts will be onsite to wet down areas to assist in managing dust
- Traffic controls will be in place, where required, including Variable Message Signage (VMS) boards
- Live monitoring of noise, dust, and vibration
- Directing light towers away from residential properties.
