Albury Wodonga Health: Hospital Site and Parking Adjustments

Major infrastructure works continue at the Albury Wodonga Regional Hospital site as part of the $558 million redevelopment project. Following the recent commencement of the Key Health Worker Accommodation site establishment, the following public access changes remain in effect today:

• Parking Redirected: Public parking has been shifted to the full length of the East Street verge. This adjustment is temporary but necessary to accommodate the primary construction zone.
• Pedestrian Safety: New construction fencing is in place near the Northeast Building site. Pedestrians are urged to use the designated new footpaths along East Street and remain alert for heavy machinery movements.
• Construction Zones: Foundational works, including screw piling and lift pit excavations, are ongoing. Please follow all on-site signage and directions from safety marshals.

Local Roadworks and Infrastructure Upgrades

Several local infrastructure projects may impact neighborhood traffic flow today. Motorists are advised to plan for minor delays in the following areas:

• Lavington: Drainage reconstruction continues between Boronia Street and Tamarind Street. Localized diversions are in place near the railway line.
• South Albury: The reconstruction of Burrows Road remains a priority, with active work on the new watermain. Temporary lane narrowing is expected.
• Table Top: Ongoing upgrades on the Hume Highway near Table Top may result in single-lane closures and reduced speed limits between 7:00 am and 6:00 pm.
