Wollongong drivers should prepare for a series of changed traffic conditions over the coming days, with certain trips likely to take an extra 10 minutes of driving time. The first of the changes will come into effect on Sunday night, with crews working at the Princes Highway and London Drive intersection in West Wollongong.
The traffic light upgrade is expected to last for 10 nights, with changed conditions in place between 8pm and 5am, excluding Fridays, Saturdays, and public holidays. Single lane closures and a reduced speed limit of 40kmh will be in place for safety.
On the M1 Princes Motorway between Memorial Drive at North Wollongong and Masters Road at Figtree, delays are expected as crews carry out road repairs, resurfacing, litter collection, gutter and drain clearing, and maintenance of signage, vegetation, and safety barriers. Work will occur on both northbound and southbound lanes for four nights.
There will be two nights of work on Monday and Tuesday on Masters Road between Springhill Road and the M1 Princes Motorway at Figtree, weather permitting. Both westbound lanes will close on Monday, with eastbound lanes closing the following night. Detours will be in place via the M1 Princes Motorway, Five Islands Road, and Springhill Road.
Motorists are encouraged to allow up to 10 minutes of additional travel time and to drive to the conditions, following signs and traffic control directions. For the latest traffic updates, download the Live Traffic NSW app, visit livetraffic.com, or call 132 701.
