Dyers Pass Road work winding up

We'll be removing traffic management on Dyers Pass Road at the end of next week as we finish work to install three kilometres of safety barriers.  The new guardrails are being installed at high-risk locations, which should reduce the severity of crashes where vehicles would have left the road.

The last night closure will be on Wednesday 29 September, and the traffic lights and construction equipment will be removed over the following two days.

We'll be doing some tidy up work the following week including sealing, line marking and extra maintenance work as the road and slopes settle down. This work will be done outside of peak hours with a stop/go in place where needed, so please continue keeping an eye out for work crews.

We know this work has been disruptive and has taken longer than expected. Thanks for your ongoing patience.

We're continuing to work within Covid-19 Alert Level 2 guidelines, so please be mindful of keeping a safe distance (a minimum of two metres) from our traffic management and construction teams if you're passing through Dyers Pass Road.
