Additional road closures February 2025

18 February 2025

Additional road closures notification for February 2025

The upgrade works of the intersection to a roundabout at Aldinga Beach Road and How Road are progressing well.

We have commenced removal of the existing road surface and asphalt laying. For the safety of road users and construction staff we will need to close the intersection at key phases of this work. The closures are required to manage the high traffic volumes which use Aldinga Beach Road. To minimise inconvenience to road users this profiling and asphalt works will be delivered at night. Additional nights of road closures are necessary to finalise this work.

KEY DETAILS

Night work (Full intersection closure)

Excavation of the existing road surface and bitumen installation will occur at night, under a full road closure of the intersection at How Road and Aldinga Beach Road.

Day work (Traffic management)
