As we're removing the centre span of the bridge we're required to temporarily close the ANZAC Bridge. Work will be postponed if we encounter high winds or heavy rain and we'll send an email on Saturday if the work is delayed. The following traffic changes will be in place on the night:
•reduced lanes and changed traffic conditions along Victoria Road and ANZAC Bridge between 8pm (Saturday) and 10am (Sunday)
•closure of all westbound traffic lanes (heading away from city) on the ANZAC Bridge between 1am and 5am on Sunday

the last section of the Beatrice Bush Bridge is planned to be removed on Saturday 18 September. Once this has occurred, we'll start demolishing the supporting foundations and adjacent retaining walls near the bridge at night. We'll be using rock hammers to demolish these structures and as a result, we expect this work to be noisy.

The Urban Design Landscape Plan (UDLP)

The UDLP outlines the urban design and landscaping objectives for the Rozelle Interchange project (the Project), including details of the transformation of the former Rozelle Rail Yards into an open green space of up to 10 hectares.
The Project is in the final stages of preparing a draft UDLP which will go on public exhibition and consultation in the coming weeks.
Before public exhibition and consultation, an online survey is available for the community to inform us on what aspects of urban design and landscaping they are most interested in learning about. This feedback will be used to ensure the Project provides the information needed during the formal exhibition period.
There is also a Factsheet that outlines further information about the upcoming UDLP....https://www.westconnex.com.au/roads-projects/m4-m5-link-rozelle-interchange/
