3.1.2 Typical traffic capacity improvement work and construction activity
One or more of six typical traffic capacity improvements would be installed at the
17 work site locations across the proposal footprint.
In certain locations, supporting work would also need to take place to enable
construction of the improvements (eg drainage or utility adjustments, tree
removal/pruning).
Table 3-2 describes the typical traffic capacity improvements and the supporting
work. Further details of the works specific to each location are provided in
section 3.1.3. It also describes the typical construction activities needed to install
each traffic capacity improvement and undertake the associated supporting work.
Section 3.3 discusses the construction activities in more detail.
