Beaconsfield Parade bridge works, Glenrowan

Work being done

McConnell Dowell will continue construction of the new Beaconsfield Parade bridge in Glenrowan during August.

Works are underway to install bridge support structures, including the concrete piers and bridge crossheads, on the Woolshed Road and Siege Street sides of the track.

Preparation for the retaining wall construction will also start on the Siege Street abutment.

The team will also continue boring and drainage work.

• Construction noise during the day
• 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
• Some of these works will be noisy and mitigation measures will be in place
• Beaconsfield Parade bridge reduced to one lane with traffic lights to manage traffic flow
• Beaconsfield Parade closed between Siege Street and Church Street
• Beaconsfield Parade bridge traffic speed reduced to 40km/h
• Limited access to the northern end of Woolshed Road other than to local businesses and residents.

Machinery used
