Traffic detoured on Bulli Pass with Mount Ousley Road closure

MOTORISTS travelling between Wollongong and Bulli Tops, via Mount Ousley Road, will be detoured along Bulli Pass and Memorial Drive for the following two Sunday nights.

The M1 Princes Motorway (Mount Ousley Road) will be closed between Bulli Tops and Memorial Drive, and Picton Road will be closed between the M1 and Wilton on Sunday February 9 and Sunday February 16, weather permitting, while safety work is carried out. The work will include vegetation removal, line marking, guardrail repairs and drain cleaning to improve water run-off and guardrail repairs.

The roads will be closed in both directions between 8pm and 4am on both days. Picton Road eastbound will be closed from 7.30pm to ensure the M1 is clear by 8pm.

More information about upcoming road closures including detour maps is available at rms.work/srrc. Work will be carried out on Sunday March 1, if delayed due to poor weather.
