Road Closure - Level Crossing Works Bishopsbourne Rd

Posted on November 29, 2021

With funding support from the Tasmanian Government, TasRail is working to improve the safety and reliability of the railway network.

Gradco has been contracted by TasRail to undertake infrastructure work on the Western Line of the Tasmanian Rail Network. The works involve the resurfacing of the level crossing at Bishopsbourne Road, Toiberry.

This essential infrastructure work will require the temporary closure of the level crossing. Motorists are advised to expect detours and delays during this time. Expected hours of operation are:

From 6am Saturday 4 December until 7pm Sunday 5 December 2021.

TasRail is committed to protecting the safety of its employees, contractors and the public. Residents are asked to be particularly vigilant for vehicle and equipment movements in the area and to always obey traffic management signage and directions given by staff on site.
