CHANGED TRAFFIC CONDITIONS ON OLYMPIC HIGHWAY AT COWRA FOR ROAD MAINTENANCE

14 March, 2018

Member for Cootamundra Steph Cooke has advised motorists of changed traffic conditions from next Monday on the Olympic Highway at Cowra for essential maintenance work.

Cowra Council will carry out the work, which will involve repairing and resurfacing the road to improve safety for all road users, on behalf of NSW Roads and Maritime.

“Although there will be some inconvenience to road users, the end result will be an improved and safer road surface,” she said.

“Motorists should plan their trip, allow extra travel time and follow the direction of all signs,” she added.

“Roads and Maritime and I thank the community for its patience while work is carried out.”

Work will be carried out between 7am and 6pm on weekdays and between 8am and 1pm on Saturdays from 19 March to 30 April, weather permitting. 

For the safety of workers and motorists, lane closures and a reduced speed limit of 40 km/h will be in place during work hours, which may affect travel times.
