Otford road closed to allow general maintenance

MOTORISTS are advised of the closure of Lady Wakehurst Drive next week, between McKell Avenue and Otford lookout for maintenance work.

The road will be closed in both directions between 8am and 3pm from Tuesday, August 9 to Thursday, August 11, weather permitting.

Work will include general maintenance, guardrail repairs, trimming vegetation and clearing gutters and drains to improve safety for road users.

Detours will be in place via McKell Avenue, the M1 Princes Motorway and Lawrence Hargrave Drive and are expected to add about 10 minutes to journeys.

Access on foot to Otford Lookout and walking tracks to the beaches in the Royal National Park will not be affected by the closure.

Transport for NSW advises motorists to drive to the conditions and follow the directions of signs and traffic control.
