Traffic changes – eastbound Inner City Bypass lanes at Kelvin Grove
From early May 2012, the Inner City Bypass (ICB) will be reduced to two lanes of traffic eastbound, between the Inner Northern Busway (INB) and the York’s Hollow landbridge.
Signage and traffic control will be in place for the safety of motorists and construction workers. The speed limit in this area will remain 60km/h.
This traffic change is required to construct the realigned eastbound ICB lanes to allow for Legacy Way’s entry and exit lanes.
Thank you for your cooperation and patience during these important works. Please refer to the April Eastern Construction Update for further information.

About the Project
Transcity has been selected to design, build and operate Legacy Way. Construction on the project is expected to take four years and be completed in 2014. Transcity will be responsible for the operations and maintenance of Legacy Way for 10 years after it opens.
Transcity's design for the project includes:
- two parallel tunnels, one east-bound and one for west-bound, each containing two lanes for traffic
- cross passages between the tunnels every 120m
- a longitudinal ventilation system to manage in-tunnel air quality
- fire protection and safety management systems
- a free-flow electronic tolling system.
