Between 6am and 3pm, one northbound lane of traffic will be open, while two lanes of traffic will be open between 3pm and 6am.

The night works will focus on the final stages of road resurfacing including temporary line marking, following work into the removal and repair of road pavement, kerbing and stormwater drains.

Meanwhile on October 6, day works will be undertaken to create formal line marking. Murdoch Street will be closed in both directions between Goodwin Street and Northbourne Avenue.

Access to Murdoch will be granted to residents and construction vehicles only.
