Dear Resident

VEGETATION REMOVAL AND DRAINAGE INVESTIGATION NIGHT WORKS IN YOUR AREATHURSDAY 19 NOVEMBER 2015

The CityLink Tulla Widening project involves adding lanes and other measures to improve the flow of traffic across the 24 kilometre section of freeway from the CityLink tunnels to Melbourne Airport. The project will also provide travel time savings per trip between Melbourne Airport and the West Gate Freeway during peak periods.

The project will deliver a safer, more reliable freeway. Generally, an additional lane is being added in each direction, as well as upgrades at key interchanges including Bell Street, Mount Alexander Road/Flemington Road and on the Bolte Bridge to West Gate Freeway entry ramp.

Leighton Contractors is the construction contractor for the Bulla Road to Power Street section of the project.

Where we will beAt the ornamental pond next to the Flemington Road off ramp, as indicated in red on the map below.

When works will occurFrom 7pm Thursday 19 to 5am Friday 20 November 2015.

What we are doingFor the construction of this essential infrastructure we will need to clear some vegetation around the ornamental pond and investigate the existing drainage service. We have worked closely with the City of Melbourne Council and Transurban to obtain planning permits and have engaged independent arborists to identify vegetation that needs to be removed.

Our works will involve: Installing barriers around our work area Using an independent arborist for vegetation removal Using a truck mounted mulching machine Cleaning using a specialised vacuum truck (non-destructive digging) CCTV investigation of the existing drain.

What to expect A small team of construction personnel at work Noise from the use of chainsaws, mulching machinery, and the vacuum truck when in

use These works will not impact your property.

The CityLink Tulla Widening project is committed to minimising the impact of construction works on the natural environment wherever possible, and a number of new trees and shrubs will be planted along the road corridor as part of the project.

This work may be rescheduled in the event of unsuitable weather or other unavoidable circumstances.

We apologise for any inconvenience and appreciate your understanding.
