 opening of Morrisby Street to Newman Road
 streetscape works in the Geebung retail precinct
 final asphalt on Robinson Road East, Morrisby Street and Newman Road

Out of hours works
As the project nears completion, some out of hours works will be required, as outlined below.
Additional information about these works will be included in separate works notices.

Night works on Robinson Road East, Morrisby Street and Newman Road (north of
Geebung Station) to complete centre islands, traffic signals and asphalt.

Out of hours works at the pedestrian bridge at times when there are no trains running.

Oversized truck deliveries to the pedestrian bridge between 5am and 6:30am (due to
oversize load permit restrictions).

Line marking during night works on Robinson Road West, Newman Road and Railway
Parade.
Changes to Geebung Station access
Changes to Geebung Station access remain in place, with pedestrian access to platforms one
and two via the open level crossing closed.
Stair access is available to platforms one and two via the existing pedestrian overpass bridge.
The nearest accessible stations providing assisted access are Zillmere Station and Sunshine
Station.
Queensland Rail announcements and signage are in place to communicate the changes, which
will be in place until the new pedestrian bridge opens in August 2014.

The $199 million Robinson Road Open Level Crossing Replacement Project will deliver an important east-west connection by
providing a new road-over-rail overpass, connecting Robinson Road East and Robinson Road West. Jointly funded by
Brisbane City Council and the Queensland Government, the project will improve safety, connectivity and travel times and
reduce road congestion in the area.
Brisbane City Council has partnered with BMD Constructions and SMEC Australia to form the Geebung Overpass (GO)
Alliance to design and construct the project by late 2014.
