Tiger Brennan Drive and Wishart Road intersection upgrades
The Northern Territory Government is upgrading the intersections of Wishart Road/Tiger Brennan Drive and Wishart Road/ Kirkland Road to improve safety and access for road users.
The upgrades are a part of the overarching Tiger Brennan Drive and Berrimah Road overpass project and will increase the flow of traffic in turn lanes, decreasing the current queuing issues being experienced, not only during the overpass construction phase, but also in the longer term.
The works are being undertaken following a traffic impact assessment which identified a need to upgrade the Tiger Brennan and Wishart Road intersection and provide an additional capacity to turn into Kirkland Road from Wishart Road.
The scope of works include:
- earthworks and pavement construction to widen the existing carriageway
- drainage modifications
- relocation and upgrade of the street lighting
- modification of the traffic signals
- asphalt works and bitumen resealing.
Traffic management planning has identified that suitable alternative routes are available for all impacted turning & through movements when required. These will be communicated to road users:
- using Variable Message Signs during the week prior and during closures
- through appropriate traffic controls and signs during the closures.
