customers with luggage.

Equipment used includes a mobile crane, piling rig, jack hammer,
concrete truck, temporary lighting and generators.
To ensure the safety of our customers and staff, this work will be

no train services will be operating.
Pedestrian and traffic detours To safely install the new
footbridge, some traffic and access changes will be in place during
the works. Traffic control and signage will be in place to assist
pedestrians and motorists with these temporary changes.
Detours will also be in place on Railway Terrace and the bus stop
location will change. Please follow the signs and directions from
traffic controllers to board/alight rail replacement bus
services.
See the map overleaf for more detail.
Construction hours Work will be carried out continuously from 4am
Saturday 8 J une until 10pm on Monday 10 June 2019.
The construction plant will be positioned as far away from
residential areas as possible, with regular respite periods for any
noisy works.

works will be completed throughout June. Construction activities
include:
• non-evasive excavation works for service identification • piling
works for new lift shafts • concrete works for new lift
shafts.

truck, vacuum truck, surveying equipment.
Standard construction hours Standard working hours are 7am to 6pm,
