The Department for Infrastructure and Transport (the Department) is upgrading a series of bridges and culverts across regional South Australia to extend the service life of the structures and improve safety for road users.

As part of these works, the Department are upgrading the bridge over Junction Creek, on Onkaparinga Valley Road, near Bridge Street Balhannah. These works are jointly funded by the Australian and South Australian governments.

What to expect

Works to upgrade the bridge over Junction Creek in Balhannah are continuing with the majority of works being undertaken during the day. Traffic will be moved onto the westbound lane from 4 September 2024, so the Department can work on the other side of the bridge.

Work will be undertaken between 7am and 5pm, Monday to Saturday. Some night works will be required in mid-September for approximately 3 nights between 7pm and 5am, weather permitting to carry out asphalt works. Properties in the vicinity of these works will be provided advance notice prior to night works commencing and onsite signage will be in place.

To safely facilitate these works, traffic will continue to be reduced to a single lane on Onkaparinga Valley Road with temporary traffic signals in place to control the direction of traffic, at all times. Speed restrictions will be in place throughout the work area for the duration of the project. Please follow traffic management directions while works are in progress and take extra care when workers are on site.

During the works, there will be some noisy disruptions from time to time, and the Department will do their best to keep the noise to a minimum.

Bridge works are expected to be complete late September 2024, weather permitting. Minor finishing works will be undertaken following the completion of these works.

Update 7 May 2024

Croft Road will be CLOSED from Wednesday 8^th May until Wednesday 15^th May, including the weekend (11^th / 12^th May) for the final stage of construction works. The full closure is required to allow the road base stabilisation works to be undertaken safely as the specialised construction plant is large and the road is narrow and windy.

The detour via Edwards Hill Road will remain in place to provide access to the Fox Creek Bike Park upper car park and Anderson Hill Winery.

Upgrade works have commenced on Croft Road in Lenswood, between Coldstore Road and the Fox Creek Bike Park upper car park.

This section of Croft Road is approximately 1.8km long. The works will include minor widening, changes in geometry to better meet modern design standards, installation of safety signage and construction of a stabilised pavement with a sprayed seal wearing course. The project will provide a safer, smoother ride for motorists as they traverse Croft Road as well as reduced ongoing maintenance for Adelaide Hill Council.

The project will commence in late April 2024 or early May 2024, weather permitting.

During this period this section of Croft Road will be closed during work hours (7am – 5pm Mon-Fri), with a detour in place to the Fox Creek Bike Park upper car park via Edwards Hill Road.

The road will be made safe and opened after hours and on weekends, with reduced speed limits in place.

A notification board has been installed at the Coldstore Road end to provide advanced notice of the road closure.

A load limit has been applied to a bridge on Montacute Road in Montacute to reduce the likelihood of overloading the existing bridge. Signage has been put in place to give drivers of heavy vehicles advanced notice and detour options. Detours will remain in place until the bridge works are complete.

A structural condition assessment was undertaken on the Montacute Road Bridge and it concluded that significant structural rehabilitation works are required. A consultant has been engaged to develop a design that replaces the existing bridge with a new structure. The objective of this structural design is to improve road safety for all users by replacing the deficient structure that has exceeded its serviceable design life.

A load rating is being applied to reduce the likelihood of overloading the existing bridge in the interim.

A start date for the bridge works has not been confirmed and we will let the community know ahead of construction.

The Adelaide Hills Productivity and Road Safety Package aims to upgrade some of the region’s key strategic arterial roads. The $150 million initiative, jointly funded by the Australian and South Australian government’s (80:20), includes a range of road improvements to support economic growth, improve road safety and increase fire resilience in the Adelaide Hills area.

While the planning and design is progressing across these key road corridors, Onkaparinga Valley Road between Verdun and Woodside was identified as a location for early safety upgrades. Works on Onkaparinga Valley Road are underway.

Works will now extend to between Tiers Road and Jacaranda Drive, Woodside and between Pugh Road and West Terrace, Balhannah. These works will include:

• road resurfacing improving skid resistance;

• improving and widening sealed shoulders;

• widening seal width at bus stops to reduce through traffic crossing centreline;

• widening of side roads to reduce drag out of loose debris; and

• new line marking.

Works will continue to be undertaken at night, Sunday to Friday nights, between 7pm and 6am. No works will be undertaken on Saturday night.

These works are expected to be completed in late July 2023, weather permitting.

To safely facilitate these works, speed and lane restrictions will be in place. Please follow the directions of on-site traffic controllers and observe traffic signage when travelling through the area. Speed restrictions of 40km/h will remain in place during the day, subject to onsite conditions. Please plan ahead, allow extra travel time, and take extra care when workers are on site.

During the works, access to some side roads off Onkaparinga Valley Road may be temporarily restricted as required with local detours in place.

Access will be maintained for emergency services vehicles and public transport at all times. Some bus stops within the project area may be temporarily impacted while works are undertaken, please observe bus stop signage and visit www.adelaidemetro.com.au for the latest information. Access to properties and businesses along Onkaparinga Valley Road will be maintained during the works wherever possible, with advance notice provided if there is a need to temporarily restrict driveway access.
