The National Capital Authority is giving notice that their perpetual roadwork on Anzac Parade is resuming bringing more misery to users of that road.

Water barriers will be installed tomorrow on the Parkes Way roundabout, in preparation for major roadwork at the intersection of Anzac Parade and Constitution Avenue.

National Capital Authority Executive Director, Alison Walker-Kaye said the water barriers will reduce the number of lanes in a section of the Parkes Way roundabout.

‘Part of the Parkes Way roundabout will be reduced to one lane to control traffic entering the work area on Anzac Parade,’ she said.

It will, hopefully, be all over by Anzac Day.

There is no logical reason why there would need to be more roadworks on Anzac Parade.

Therefore, the only possible explanation is that the government is building some sort of underground bunker that links the Parliamentary Triangle with Defence and ASIO.

What? In addition to the existing bunker…………….ooops I’ve said too much

Years of continuous roadworks on Anzac Parade and yet still no threat of bike lanes being installed.

That’s what they want you to think.

“Signalisation”

Oh dear. What is becoming of our language?

They’re leveraging it going forward anymore.

But those intersections don’t need “signalisation”. They are fine the way they are. Retards with no respect for our time and money, but then again if you pay somebody to “signalise” things then it is going to happen regardless of whether it is required.
Hard to believe that it is gpoing to take so long but I am used to gross incompetence by now. I wonder if they will try to get as much done as possible during the XMAS break?

Canberra Av is slower and slower each day as a result.

Anyone care to take a guess when the airport will be free of orange barrier thingys?

How effing long does it take to dig a hole in the ground and put bitumen in it?

Its a good thing that peak hour traffic moves so quickly along Limestone Avenue at the moment; and that there is an obvious speedy alternative route through the Russell Roundabout… this wont cause any problems.
