Scope
The Olympic Highway through Wagga Wagga provides an important regional and local link from suburbs north of the Murrumbidgee River, Bomen Freight Hub and Charles Sturt University to services in Wagga Wagga via the two-lane, two-way Gobbagombalin Bridge.
Traffic growth as a result of increased land development to the north of Wagga Wagga is placing increasing pressure on the intersections of Travers Street and Old Narrandera Road, either side of the bridge.
Transport for NSW is investigating road and intersection upgrades at the Olympic Highway intersections with Old Narrandera Road and Travers Street and widening the Sturt Highway to four lanes over Marshall’s Creek in Wagga Wagga.
While Gobbagombalin Bridge is not being considered as part of this work, the proposed intersection upgrades will improve safety, access and traffic efficiency for this increasingly busy area.
CJC Role
CJC was engaged by TfNSW to;
- Organise and facilitate a formal Constructability and HSiD Workshop for the Olympic Highway Intersection Upgrades Project
- Participate in pre-workshop activities
- Prepare Workshop deliverables
The objective of the Olympic Highway project at Old Narrandera Road and Travers Street is to:
- Improve road safety
- Improve access between Northern Growth Areas and services in Wagga Wagga
- Reduce commuter delays while catering for future highway traffic, including freight, on the Olympic Highway
- Deliver a project enabling flexibility for future additional capacity to support traffic growth from continued industrial and residential development in Wagga’s Northern Growth Area and Special Activation Precinct.
