Changed Traffic Conditions: Newell Highway Parkes

On display until 30 January 2025, 12:00 AM

Council would like to advise motorists on behalf of Transport for NSW, of changed traffic conditions on the Newell Highway in Parkes from Friday 29 November for the construction of the northern connection of the Parkes Bypass.

Traffic on the Newell Highway, north of Bogan Road, will be switched onto a short section of the new highway, under stop/slow conditions. Work hours will be 7am to 6pm, Monday to Friday and 8am to 6pm on Saturdays, and the road will reopen to two-way traffic at night.

The works are expected to take three days, weather permitting. Intermittent stopping and a reduced speed limit of 40 km/h will be in place during work hours and may add an additional five minutes to travel times.
