The Roads and Traffic Authority (RTA) is continuing with construction work for the Inner West Busway along Victoria Road through Drummoyne and Rozelle.

Victoria Road will remain open at all times. Traffic management signs and crews will be in place to direct drivers safely around the work areas. Drivers are requested to take care and to follow the signs.

• Lane closures in Rozelle and Drummoyne - temporary lane closures will continue outside of weekday peak periods.
• Lane closures in Drummoyne - various temporary closures of the median lanes on Victoria Road (citybound and westbound) Sundays to Thursdays 10pm to 5am.

Noise impact will vary depending on your proximity to the noise source, protection by other structures and the type of building you reside in. Noise levels have been identified in the project’s Construction Noise and Vibration Management Plan, ranging on a scale of one to four:

• Type 1 such as saw cutting and rock breaking. 
• Type 2 such as excavation, loading trucks and compaction.
• Type 3 such as most hand tools, stockpiling, water carts and sweeping.
• Type 4 such as minor hand tools, drilling, steel cutting and pavement painting vehicles.

High noise work, such as saw cutting and concrete breaking will, wherever possible, be done during the day between 10am and 3pm or before midnight, to minimise noise impact on the local community. Other work, which has less noise impact and is generally considered as low noise work, will be done at night between 7pm and 5am to minimise the impacts on traffic flow, access and parking on Victoria Road. 

Intermittent periods of high noise levels between 12am and 5am will be unavoidable and may be experienced by residents in the immediate vicinity of the work.
