Changed traffic arrangements at the Barton Highway roundabout


Released 25/11/2016

Night works will be undertaken at the Barton Highway/ William Slim Drive/ Gundaroo Drive roundabout this Sunday, 27 November 2016, between 9 pm and 6 am (weather permitting). In the event of wet weather these works will be postponed to Monday 28 November 2016.

The Gundaroo Drive westbound approach to the roundabout will be fully closed. Traffic will be diverted to Gungahlin Drive. Right turns only will be permitted from Abena Avenue, Nudurr Drive and Burrowa Street onto Gundaroo Drive.

Barriers, warning and diversion signs will be erected to alert motorists including heavy vehicle traffic to the changed arrangements. A reduced speed limit of 40 km/h will be in place during the works.

The changed traffic arrangements will allow pavement works to be completed in preparation for the installation of the traffic signals as part of the intersection upgrade. The intersection signalisation is planned to be completed in December 2016 (weather permitting). The remaining construction works are expected to be completed in February 2017.  

We want to thank the community for their patience as we complete these important works. For up-to-date information on road closures call Access Canberra on 13 22 81 or visit  www.tccs.act.gov.au
