TENDERS CALLED FOR WATERLOO ROAD INTERCHANGE
Tenders are now being called for the construction of the multi-
million dollar Waterloo Road/Prince Edward Road/Boundary Street grade
separated interchange.
During peak hours, this area is choked with traffic and the new
interchange should help in easing the flow of vehicles.
An elevated road spanning the intersections of Waterloo Road
with Prince Edward Road and Boundary Street will provide a dual two-lane
carriageway for through traffic along Waterloo Road.
A system of scissors ramps will provide east to south movement for
traffic from Boundary Street to Waterloo Road; and south to west movement
for traffic from Waterloo Road to Prince Edward Road.
On completion of the main flyovers, the existing temporary flyover
along Prince Edward Road will be dismantled. It will be replaced by a
vehicle underpass which will take westbound through traffic beneath Waterloo
Road.
The temporary flyover can be re-used as required at other traffic.
"black spots" as either a three-lane or a two-lane flyover.
Work on the interchange complex is expected to begin early next
year, and will take about two and a half years to complete.
