Description

The objective of the project is to improve overall intersection operation including public and active transport facilities and improve overall safety. The scope is to finalise all elements in the pre-construction phase that results in a design solution in the form of a set of Construction Contract Documents to establish the construction contract. The project includes two intersections:

• Esher Street, Toohey Road and Sexton Street Intersection, Tarragindi

• Annerley Road, Cornwall Street and Noble Street Intersection, Dutton Park.
