For more information on piling, please see the piling fact sheet.
Service relocation works (until mid-2024)
Road closures and traffic management to facilitate the relocation of waterpipes are in place at the William Street and Railway Parade intersection, and the William and Sevenoaks streets intersection until mid-2024.
William Street eastbound will be reopened from late March until mid-2024 via the slip road, following completion of Stage 1 works.
Drainage Works
There may be an increase in dust, noise, and heavy vehicle movement during drainage works on Railway Parade between Lacey and William streets until late-March, and then from William Steet to Bickley Road, until mid-April. Traffic Management with detours will be in place.
Slip road (until mid-2025)
This road is a crucial route for construction vehicles, including heavy haulage, delivering building materials for the rail corridor. It also services the bus routes during the Armadale/Thornlie Line Shutdown. This slip road will remain active for the duration of the project, with future modifications to enable eastbound traffic movements expected to open in mid-2024.
William Street will temporarily reopen to eastbound traffic, via the slip road, following completion of Stage 1 works until mid-2024.
Pedestrian access maps
When works are occurring close to the boundary, on either side of the intersection, the crossing on the opposite side remains open.
