Due to the nature of the work it will be necessary to operate a road closure on Mall East from 7.00 pm Friday until 8.00 pm Sunday with local access being maintained here via its junction with College Hill at the Court House.  Gaol Square will be closed overnight Friday until 10.30 am Saturday when it will reopen to allow one lane of traffic to flow in each direction until 6.30 pm when it will be closed again until 8.00 pm Sunday.  Traffic will also be prohibited from turning right from Barrack Hill onto Victoria Street throughout the works.  Signed diversions via Mall West and College Hill will be in operation during the closures.

In order to help ensure the safety of road users and road workers the public is asked to comply with all temporary traffic restrictions and to exercise care when travelling through, or in the vicinity, of the works.

The Department has programmed the work and traffic management arrangements to minimise any inconvenience, however, road users should expect some delays and are advised to leave additional time when planning any journeys.
