Over the next month we will be undertaking pavement investigations on South Road along the River Torrens to Darlington Project alignment. These investigations will be used to inform road surface upgrades to ensure South Road is in good condition during the project and at completion.

Location and timing

We will be carrying out investigations at multiple locations on South Road and adjacent arterial roads, from Richmond Road, Richmond/Mile End South through to Ashwin Parade, Torrensville. We only expect to be at each location for a short period of time.
Investigations works are expected to begin Thursday 19 January through to Friday 24 February for approximately 20 nights (excluding the 26 and 27 January), weather permitting. Works will be carried out between 6pm and 7am. We’re working at night to minimise impacts on traffic and to ensure the safety of our workers.

Traffic restrictions

  • Temporary traffic and speed restrictions will apply in the vicinity of the works.
  • Driveway and local street access at locations adjacent to the works will be maintained.
  • Signage will be in place to alert road users to the changes in traffic conditions. Road users are advised to take care when travelling through the area.

What to expect

During works you may notice additional ground and traffic management personnel and equipment within the area. Some disturbances can be expected such as noise, dust and vibration caused by short term excavation and drilling works.
