Tiger Brennan Drive and Berrimah Road intersection overpass

The Northern Territory Government in partnership with the Australian Government is constructing a new overpass at the Tiger Brennan Drive and Berrimah Road intersection.

The project is being jointly delivered to improve road safety outcomes at this intersection.

The second phase of construction for the Tiger Brennan Drive and Berrimah Road overpass commenced 25 November 2023.

Road closure and detours

In order to progress with construction of the approach to the new bridge, Berrimah Road from Wishart Road to Tiger Brennan Drive will be closed to all road users. Road users have an alternative route to access East Arm via Wishart Road. Refer to the map PDF (958.2 KB).

Tiger Brennan Drive will remain open and vehicles travelling between Darwin and Palmerston can continue to travel along Tiger Brennan Drive as normal. Berrimah Road north from Tiger Brennan Drive to Marlow Road will remain closed with a slated reopening expected in August 2024.

Traffic was transitioned to the new alignment of Tiger Brennan Drive in stages once the bridge construction was substantially complete and safe to allow vehicles to pass underneath.

The outbound lanes were transitioned in April 2024 and the inbound lanes in June 2024.
