The NSW government is delivering improvements to Wakehurst Parkway between Frenchs Forest and Narrabeen focusing on safety and capacity for this key link.
What work are we doing?
In August, we're continuing work on Wakehurst Parkway, between Trefoil Creek and Oxford Falls Road.
Key work activities include:
- Earthworks and excavation
- Vegetation removal
- Rock breaking and stabilisation work
- Utility work
- Drainage work
When and where we’ll be working
In August, we’ll be working along Wakehurst Parkway between Trefoil Creek and Oxford Falls Road.
Our standard working hours are Monday to Friday 7am to 6pm and 8am to 1pm on Saturday. Our out-of-hours are between 8pm and 6am. To complete the rock breaking activities near Oxford Falls Road west, there will be some noisy work completed after midnight. Nearby residents will be contacted in advance of work taking place.
Our equipment
Work will involve the use of the following machinery and equipment:
- Delivery vehicles (heavy vehicles, light vehicles and ‘pick and carry’ cranes)
- Earthworks machinery (excavator, profiler, roller, grader, tipper, vacuum truck)
- Chainsaws, mulchers, lighting towers and hand tools.
What will this mean for you?
While we carry out this work, you may notice:
- Workers and vehicles moving around the site
- Traffic controllers and signage directing road users
- Temporary lane closures and reduced speed limits during and outside of standard hours
- Noise from machinery and equipment.
Managing our impacts
Some work activities will require the use of machinery which generate noise, light and vibration. We’ll implement the following controls to minimise the impact to the community and environment:
- Use non-tonal reversing beepers
- Manage dust by watering down exposed areas during earthworks
- Minimise light spill through targeted lighting
- Complete oversize deliveries later at night when traffic volumes are lower.
- Keep residents and businesses informed ahead of higher-impact activities
